Weather can change causing people to have to modify their every day tasks in order to survive.
Weather can force people to move out of environments completely.

I will have an open mind when presented with scenarios of people living differently than me.
I will ask questions in order to gain perspective.
I will offer help and support for those who are going through adaptations.
All people struggle to work through change and deserve a helping hand.
Environments are where people live which are effected by surroundings like people, culture, geography, and weather.
People adapt in order to survive.
Survival depends on human needs.
Religion, personal beliefs, customs/traditions, and family are a few elements that make up cultural practices.
Cultural practices are important and are often attempted to be upheld through adaptations.
