Fight Climate Change While Reducing Stress

This is Scott Amyx with today’s Climate Change Flash Briefing. What are some of the top causes of stress? Money, relationships, self-image, and traffic. So how can you reduce stress in 2019? ✦ Is your work-life balance out of whack? If you’re working long hours or working in a job that you hate to pay for a bigger house, better car, and more stuff, you will always be stressed. Consider consuming less and living below your means. It has a direct impact to your carbon footprint and your happiness ✦ Relationships take a lot work. Yet, we have so many distractions. We rather spend hours on Instagram, YouTube or Netflix rather than catching up regularly with our loved ones. By allocating more time for our family and friends, we not only reduce our carbon footprint and energy use but strengthen our relationships ✦ Are you not happy with the way you look in the mirror? Consider regular exercise, more walking, and eating a plant-based diet. Not only does it help you to feel and look better but it reduces climage change impact. Even JAY-Z and Beyonce challenge people to adopt a plant-based diet indicating that “We all have a responsiblity.” ✦ Do you hate traffic? Do you find yourself stressed behind the wheel? Take public transportation. It not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions, you can destress, relax, and even catch up on sleep. Stay tuned next time as we explore the severity of climate change.
