How can we live in harmony with nature?First, just to get this out of the way, if you have money you can just buy an ecologically harmonious lifestyle off-the-shelf. I'm not going to go through all the options, there are consultants you can hire, if you got the moolah. You can super-insulate your house, retrofit your old appliances, buy solar panels and EVs, etc. Go for it!

What does it even mean to live in harmony with the ecology? First of all it means that you don't take more than you need and you don't cause pointless damage, and you return your waste to the system. It's kind of incredible, but that's really all the rest of the world requires of us: basic consideration and our poop, pee, and exhalations.

It means to refrain from flying and from driving. It means that you should grow your own food if you can, and what you can't grow you should buy from people you know, people who live nearby and who grow their produce in ecologically harmonious ways.This isn't just about getting and eating healthy food. You should try to spend your money locally, and buy from local people who also buy locally. Circulate those dollars within the regenerative subset of the economy. E.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_currency

This is pretty urgent.It's not going to get less hot. Those "heat waves" are not waves, they're the new normal.It's scary, but it means that you have a real good reason to do something radical and constructive.Get out of the city, get onto some land, start an "eco-village" with your friends and family.
