Morning folks! 🌎
Today for OnlySky, I contrast three recent migrant crises in the news - in Canada, in the UK, and in Texas - to reflect on the economic and environmental factors that keep getting lost in the panic around rising immigration.
Immigration *is* a serious issue, which is why we cannot afford to let xenophobes and political stunts dominate the conversation. We need to grapple with our countries' underlying failure to invest in better societies all around.

yes, immigration is going to be a major political headache as climate change amps up, along with general war energies building.

These are going to be hard years.
Thankfully, we go into them knowing we're not alone: not with the fears and the grief, or with our firm desire to do what we can, where we can, to help.
