Small symptoms of climate change

Small symptoms of climate change

To the Editor,

At Trader Joe’s in Media three weeks ago, I could find no California dried apricots, only Turkish. “Wildfire in California,” I thought. “Climate change.” At Trader Joe’s in Oregon last week, I found California dried apricots. I bought a bag and returned the next day for more, but they were sold out, and only Turkish apricots remained. “Not enough local crop to serve both coasts,” I thought. “Barely enough for the west coast. Wildfire in California. Climate change.”
