One of the biggest issues on most minds today is, regardless of where we live in the world, will we be safe to stay where we are and if so, for how long? Many are having these conversations privately with spouses and families, while in the meantime, hedge fund managers and investors are buying up land that appears desirable in the future.
Climate migration is expected to pick up pace too, but is it best to move before? Or is it best to wait and see what unfolds? The truth is, there is no clear answer from all the data and research being released but being aware of the risks locally is critical. We don’t want to be shocked into action after-the-fact, when it’s going to be a lot harder with potentially millions on the move at the same time. However, neither do we want to move too soon, especially if it proves unnecessary.
Who knows, we might be able to get this climate emergency front and centre, which may reduce impact. But right now, what is needed for that to happen is not happening – aka emissions are only going in one direction – UP!
I am thrilled to welcome Kate Marsden on the show this week. Kate and her family lost everything in the Queensland floods this year, and she has struggled ever since. She is going to share her experiences and observations from this devastating event, as well as the emotions, so we can learn from someone who has already been in the eye of the storm.
I’m also delighted to welcome Samantha Gayfer as my co-host, someone who has been pondering this for her family too. Between the three of us, we will be able to cover Australia, Asia and all the way to Canada.
Join us for a wide-ranging conversation, and let’s all start thinking about what is at risk, so we can push for the systemic change needed that won’t result in millions of us having to move. In the meantime, let’s make sure we are prepared!
