Well, I moved to northern Finland from the United States about 3 years ago, but that was mostly not driven by climate change worries. Mostly.
Did you enjoy the move?

#12Insulation, to withstand hotter temperatures. Getting in touch with my neighbors, because if there’s a disaster, we’re the ones who will help each other out. Talking to my members of congress about this. If we can stay under 2C, a lot of things going to be easier.

#13Just moved to Canada. When it gets warmer I will move further to the north.
Besides that - recycling and avoiding single-use plastics as much as possible.

#17Like most people , I'm not making a conscious effort to prepare. But, as a father of two teenage children - I occasionally tell them to enjoy certain foods now, as crop failures might make them rare or prohibitively expensive. Like bananas. A fruit that is very sensitive to the environment and difficult to store.
