This Week's Current Events:

• The U.S. government is edging towards a shutdown because of internal dysfunction within the Republican party
• The United Auto Workers union (UAW) has begun to go on strike
• The August Inflation Report
• A Republican-sponsored Senate bill has been introduced to raise the minimum wage and simultaneously crack down harder on undocumented immigrants
• A Pennsylvania special election spells good news for Democrats in 2024
• At the U.N. summit, Biden aims to normalize relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel

In our deep dive this week, we discuss the humanitarian effects that climate change may have as it causes migration and greater resource scarcity. It certainly seems that it's going to make it much more dangerous to be a human, and lead countries to hoard their own resources.
