The idea of carbon footprint dates back to the early 2000s and ironically was introduced by oil giant BP. But recently, a new concept was created: the climate change shadow. It's a relatively recent addition to the ever growing list of terms relating to climate change. American writer Emma Pattee introduced the idea of the climate shadow in a blog post for Mic.com in December 2021, as a more comprehensive metric for each person's impact on the climate crisis.  What exactly contributes to my climate shadow? Isn't that very similar to a carbon footprint? How useful is the concept of a climate shadow? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !

Annie is 37 weeks pregnant. She's shopping at IKEA in Portland, Oregon, when everything around her begins to shake. It's an earthquake – the big one. Unable to get in touch with her husband or anyone else, she starts to walk. This is the setup for Emma Pattee's new novel Tilt, which the author says was inspired by the major earthquake predicted to hit the Pacific Northwest in the next 50 years. In today's episode, Pattee talks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about millennial disappointment, striving for scientific accuracy in the writing process, and what it means to prepare for disaster.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Set over the course of a single day, an electrifying debut novel from “a powerful new literary voice” (Vogue) following one woman's journey across a transformed city, carrying the weight of her past and a fervent hope for the future. Last night, you and I were safe. Last night, in another universe, your father and I stood fighting in the kitchen. Annie is nine months pregnant and shopping for a crib at IKEA when a massive earthquake hits Portland, Oregon. With no way to reach her husband, no phone or money, and a city left in chaos, there's nothing to do but walk.

As she walks, Annie reflects on her struggling marriage, her disappointing career, and her anxiety about having a baby. If she can just make it home, she's determined to change her life. A propulsive debut, Tilt is a primal scream of a novel about the disappointments and desires we all carry, and what each of us will do for the people we love. Emma Pattee is a climate journalist and a fiction writer living in Portland, Oregon. She's written about climate change for The Atlantic, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Guardian, and more.

Just the immediate reality of survival.That's the premise of Tilt, a gripping new novel that forces us to ask: How does financial precarity shape our survival? What happens when class determines who makes it out—and who doesn't?Today, I'm talking to award-winning journalist and climate crisis storyteller Emma Pattee, whose novel Tilt is as much about disaster as it is about money, resilience, and the choices we make when everything changes in an instant.We're unpacking the financial fears that show up in moments of crisis, why money is a survival tool, and the hidden ways class shapes disaster response. Plus, Emma shares her own experiences with money and motherhood—things she wishes she had known before having kids.

Le concept d'ombre climatique fait son apparition d'abord en anglais sous l'appellation de Climate Shadow dans un article publié en décembre 2021 sur le site d'information Mic  point com. La journaliste, Emma Pattee, titrait son article : Oubliez votre empreinte carbone, parlons plutôt d'ombre climatique.  Pour rappel, l'empreinte carbone est une méthode permettant d'évaluer la façon dont notre mode de vie contribue au réchauffement climatique. L'ombre climatique est-elle différente de l'empreinte carbone ? Et est-elle plus efficace pour lutter contre le réchauffement climatique ? Quelles actions peuvent nous permettre de lutter contre le réchauffement climatique ?  Ecoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez". Un podcast écrit et réalisé par Johanna Cincinatis.

In this episode of the Dive podcast, we talk to Emma Pattee and Stuart Henigson who co-wrote this week's cover story for Willamette Week. This story is all about the Portland International Raceway. Based in Kenton, this race track admits so much noise it is constantly breaking city law. And yet, this racetrack - which is owned by the city - keeps on breaking the law and disregarding the citizens in the area. We talk about this very complicated issue with two people who have been studying it for a year. We also get you all caught up on the biggest news stories of the week. Thank you for listening and we will catch you next week! :)

In Episode 14 of the Dive Podcast, Hank talks to freelance reporter Emma Pattee about her story covering Christina Malone. Malone holds Oregon's record for powerlifting. Despite her accolades, people in Portland are constantly commenting on her size. Wherever she goes, people remark on her large body, trying to advise her or shame her into changing her size. We talk about fat-shaming in sports and the reason why Portland is not as comfortable with larger people than we would like to think. Also, we want to hear from you, the listener. Email us at hsanders@wweek.com to tell your story on the Dive Podcast. Thanks for listening.

Tune in this week as we discuss how Emma got heavily involved in activism, almost by accident, and felt so passionately about it that she adjusted her life to keep the fight going. We’re also covering the wealth gap and how the privileged among us can share their privilege with others in our communities. Emma is also sharing her tips for anybody who wants to become a professional writer, especially those experiencing imposter syndrome.

We’ve all heard the statistic that 50% of marriages end in divorce. Yet, how many people who are married or planning to get married actually make provisions for the possibility of a future breakup? Even though divorces can be contentious, when it comes to separating finances and dividing assets, most couples simply don’t think ahead enough to make plans for this possibility. However, there seems to be a shift recently. Although prenuptial agreements are still uncommon, their rates have steadily risen over the last 20 years. In this episode, our friend Emma Pattee will make a case for why she thinks all married or engaged couples should have a prenup or postnup. She’ll tell us the story of how she and her husband ended up with both of these documents and how it affected their relationship. She’ll share with us what they did right and what she wished they could have done better. And she’ll try to convince us that a discussion about finances and the division of assets in the event of a breakup is essential to the preparation of any marriage. If you would like to connect with our guest, you can find Emma at https://www.emmapattee.com/ and apply for her free course on prenuptial agreements at https://www.emmapattee.com/prenup/ If you enjoy the episode, please subscribe to In Love and Money in your favorite podcast app, such as Apple Podcasts or Spotify, so you’ll be notified as soon as we release new episodes!

In this episode of the Million Dollar Badass Podcast, host Rachel Rodgers welcomes a panel of guests to discuss the importance of financial independence among women. Liz Dennery Sanders, Sylvie McCracken, Shanee Howard and Emma Pattee round out this panel of stellar guests as they bring a wide array of experience between the four of them. Ranging from entrepreneurs and authors to brand developers and screenwriters, these women all have one thing in common; they know how to get stuff done. The panel discusses the societal stigma of financial success and why money has become such a taboo topic. They each touch on how they view money and what value they place on their money as it relates to time. Rachel proposes her theory centered on money and feminism and prompts the panel to divulge mindset changes they have undergone in order to achieve success. Rachel’s father once told her, “Don’t ever depend on no man,” and these women surely embody that sentiment.

I chat with Financial Grownup best-selling author & podcast host Bobbi Rebell about what it means to be a financial grownup, the difference between high achievers and dreamers, and her story of going from journalist to entrepreneur focused on educating others about finance and success. Long description: Back in the spring, I had the opportunity to attend a women in business retreat called Statement that was organized by money expert Stefanie O’Connell and writer Emma Pattee. It was held in the Catskills and was 3 days of intense workshopping with other women entrepreneurs. It was honestly one of the best things I’ve experienced all year, especially since it gave me the chance to meet so many amazing women (many of whom will be on the podcast this season) One of those women is Bobbi Rebell. Bobbi is a CFP® and host of the Financial Grownup podcast. She is also the author of the best-selling self-help/personal finance book How to Be a Financial Grownup: Proven Advice from High Achievers on How to Live Your Dreams and Have Financial Freedom. If that wasn’t impressive enough, she’s also a keynote speaker and an award-winning TV anchor and personal finance columnist who has worked at Thomson Reuters, PBS (Nightly Business Report) CNN and CNBC. In this episode, we talk about how Bobbi Rebell went from traditional journalist to becoming an entrepreneur herself, starting with her book then launching a podcast. We also talk about how she’s able to get so many big celebrities on her show through the power of networking and just being ballsy and straight up asking them. I hope you feel motivated after this episode to get out there and stop thinking about doing something, but actually doing it. I know, doing is the hardest part, but without taking that next step, you’ll never be able to reach your full potential and you’ll never truly become a financial grownup.

#143: Emma Pattee became a millionaire at age 26. But she hates it when I describe her like that. Here are other ways that Emma would prefer to be known: She's thoughtful. She's hilarious. She's kind. Emma is the child of hippies. She grew up in a tent in Oregon, at least for a portion of her childhood. She has a BFA in writing from Emerson College. She bought her first house at age 21. At the time, Emma was juggling a demanding full-time job with her ambitions of becoming a writer. This balancing act felt too tough. She felt motivated to quit her job as quickly as possible, so that she could devote her time to writing. She moved in with her boyfriend's parents, saved 70 percent of her income, and contemplated what to do next. She decided to "buy a small house in a not-so-nice neighborhood, and live for free by renting out enough rooms to cover my mortgage and make a little money on the side." But then she developed an addiction to real estate. She kept buying houses and converting them into rental properties. She DIY'ed some projects and hired contractors for other projects. She improved the homes and raised the rents. She reinvested the cash flow into buying more houses. She borrowed against the equity and bought even more houses. And that's how Emma, by age 26, became a millionaire. Her seven-figure net worth -- and more importantly, the cash flow that accompanied it -- allowed Emma to reach financial independence. She could stop trading her time for a paycheck. Emma quit her job at age 26 and dove into the world of self-employment, starting a lucrative one-woman enterprise as a professional ghostwriter. She writes books and articles, for which her clients receive authorship credit. In exchange for this effort, Emma makes a substantial amount of money. So who is Emma Pattee? She's a financially independent millionaire real estate investor who started a lucrative self-employment business as a writer. (Sound familiar?) Among the many words in that sentence, the most important word, to Emma, is the word "writer." That's why she started down this path. She wasn't trying to become wealthy. She wanted to become a self-funded artist. She wanted, simply, to write. __ Emma is a close friend. She was my guest of honor, my Plus One, when I delivered my keynote speech at the World Domination Summit last month. She's my travel buddy and real estate investing companion; we visited Alabama last year to check out potential investments in Birmingham and Montgomery. She and I have talked about meeting occasionally for writing retreats. In today's episode, Emma and I sit down at her dining room table, plug in a microphone, and hit "record." In the 30-minute conversation that follows, we talk about how and why we reached financial independence -- and what comes next. Enjoy.

I’m a huge fan of supporting women in all areas of their lives, but specifically, I love to help women get empowered with money which is why I’m excited to share with you this special episode about the Lola Retreat. One of the co-founders of Lola is a great friend of Martinis and Your Money, Melanie Lockert from Dear Debt, and she’s on today with her Lola co-founder Emma Pattee to talk about this event, what you can expect and how you can join us. My biggest takeaway is that I know this retreat is going to be so meaningful that I’ve invested my own time and money in being a part of it and I hope to see as many of you there as possible. If you’re a martini and your money listener and attend Lola, plan to have a martini on me and with me while you’re there.

#66: You know that rare moment when you meet someone with whom you connect *instantly*? I felt that way when I met Emma Pattee, the 26-year-old millionaire and mini-real-estate-mogul who joins me on today's episode. Emma and I share similar stories: we're both young female artists and entrepreneurs who figured out that wealth is a tool for creating the freedom that allows us to live on our own terms. We both hustled harder than words can describe, living and breathing our commitment to breaking free from the trading-time-for-money cycle. We refused to accept the defaults that were handed to us. We viewed our investments as a way to create a more sustainable, meaningful life. We rejected the limiting belief that a creative, meaningful life is somehow more 'pure' when it's lived in scarcity and deprivation. We embraced abundance. We asked "how can I create this?" We viewed every problem as inherently solve-able. We took responsibility for everything that crossed our paths. Most critically, we decided that we weren't going to let any excuses hold us back. We accepted radical responsibility for our own lives. We wouldn't allow ourselves to get trapped in a victim mindset, a comparison ("they-have-it-easier!") mindset, or an external-factors-are-holding-me-back mindset. I rarely meet people who have committed to the inner work of internalizing these lessons. Emma is one of those rare people. And that's why I'm excited to share our breakfast conversation with you. I hope you enjoy this episode. And to paraphrase Seth Godin, more importantly, I hope this episode spurs you to take action. Lots of love, Paula
