Ask HN: How are you preparing for the effects of climate change?

From all available data and observations, the mean earth temperature is rapidly warming and causing significant changes to the amplitude of storms and weather events. Or, in the words of a park ranger I spoke with last summer, “It’s gonna be either droughts or floods from here on out.” So, considering this future of rapidly increasing heat and unpredictability, how are you preparing? How are you arranging your ten year plan for work, finances, shelter, and family considering the realities before us? Personally, I expect food prices to rise so I am growing a considerable garden and keeping chickens. I also have planted trees facing South to protect my home from the direct sunlight. I also plan on putting in solar panels and a heat pump in the next five years. I am curious how others who also realize what a pickle we are in are preparing.
