    #15: How do you flee the climate crisis?

    So you want to flee the climate crisis. Now what? The impulse — like many of us privileged folks have — is to move. Run from the worsening weather. Go toward bluer pastures to avoid s****y governments. But it doesn’t work like that. There is no true safety now. I’ve come to realize our best option is to stay where we are — with community and connections we’ve already built — and settle in for a long, hard fight.

    #14: How do you decide what to grow in your garden?

    Deciding to grow some of your own food is an amazing goal, but how do you know exactly what to grow in your garden? Most of us don’t have a massive farm to do whatever we want on, so… we have to prioritize. Let’s talk about the 3 considerations I have in mind when I plan my garden for the next year.

  5. #11: What will people come to you for in the apocalypse?

    #11: What will people come to you for in the apocalypse?

    What will people come to you for in the end of the world? AKA sharing and honing your skills. Sure, it sounds a little dark when we frame skill-building as an apocalyptic move, but the fact is learning useful skills can help you muddle through everyday life more easily too. So let’s use this time to set a little action item: commit to spending one hour per week on developing or practicing your skill. Skill building and development obviously can look like a million different things. It could be doing hands on projects, taking classes in person or maybe online, reading books, watching videos, you know, anything that really focuses your brain and moves you forward in a positive way. show notes: pollybarks.com/podcast/11get the book: pollybarks.com/book/ buy me a coffee: buymeacoffee.com/polly.barks Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/7MK6dCCgR22NJD3XpzpxEY Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/resilience-in-the-end/id1708979186 MENTIONEDSolarpunk tech: https://twitter.com/HydroponicTrashKelly Kettle: https://www.kellykettleusa.com/trekker-small-stainless-steel-kelly-kettle
