personally, natural disasters have been happening more often. Recently, a record number of hurricanes happened in the
Atlantic ocean, which puts 2017 in the top ten years with major hurricanes in the past 150 years. In Costa Rica, September 2017
had the highest rainfall ever recorded. Consequently, the streets were flooded and the students from there were not able to
connect with the students in Canada for an investigation via video conference. Although natural disasters like these have an
impact on everyone, they have a larger effect on Indigenous communities as it impacts culture, heritage and lifestyle.
