Climate Migration

Climate Migration

We humans have lived within a surprisingly narrow range of temperatures for most of our history. But this range? It’s slowly and steadily moving north. Enter climate migration.

As the planet warms and weather events become more severe, it’s natural to wonder about safety. How do we know it’s time to leave our beloved homes and move for good? Where are the so-called climate havens, and do they have infrastructure in place to support a sudden population influx?

On today’s show we round out Difficult Decisions Week with two women who are among the first to consider climate change when buying property and laying down roots.

 

Here’s a preview:

[11:00] 3 characteristics to look for in a prospective climate haven

[22:00] The red flags one guest believes will inform her it’s time to go for good

[27:00] Even in 2023, Americans continue to move toward both heat and coastlines. At what point is doing so no longer a solid financial investment?

[30:00] Advice for listeners considering a proactive climate move

How To Let Stuff Go

When we let go of what doesn't serve us, we remove weight that holds us down. On today's show we turn to Zen Buddhism for wisdom on letting go of anxiety about the future, grudges, stuff, dead relationships, and more.

Here's a preview:

[4:00] Insanely anxious about the future? (Me too!) Don't spend your energy worrying; do this instead

[12:00] Think of decluttering not as throwing stuff away; think of it instead as setting your stuff (and yourself!) free

[19:00] How to let go of lost friendships and relationships, straight from the mouths of Buddhist monks

[26:00] Holding a grudge requires vast amounts of energy so become skilled at forgetting

[34:00] You're going to get to where you're meant to go, so there's no need to second-guess your choices
