Did you know you can't travel between Hawaii's islands by ferry, even though they're only 100-150 miles apart?For many travelers, island hopping in Hawaii seems like it should be as simple as catching a boat, but the reality involves brutal ocean conditions, environmental concerns, and a fascinating history of failed attempts.

From Colorado's Blue Lakes Trail limiting hikers to 40 per day, to Bhutan charging tourists $200 daily just to exist in the country, this episode explores the uncomfortable truth about environmental protection: the solutions that actually work all involve saying NO. We examine successful tourism limits from the Galápagos Islands to Antarctica, revealing how permits, quotas, and fees are preserving ecosystems while mass tourism destinations collapse under their own popularity. The evidence is overwhelming—places like Thailand's Maya Bay and Mount Everest show what happens when we prioritize unlimited access over protection.But here's the breakthrough insight environmentalists are missing: tourism limits have broader political support than almost any other environmental policy. Even people who oppose carbon taxes will fight to protect their favorite hiking spots from overcrowding. Tourism restrictions work politically because the problem and solution are both visible and immediate—unlike abstract climate policies, everyone understands not wanting paradise destroyed by crowds. This could be our gateway to normalizing environmental protection that actually requires limits on consumption.The episode reveals how accepting permits for wilderness areas could lead to accepting limits everywhere else. From Hawaii's new green fees funding climate adaptation to the Netherlands' A-E scoring system for flights, tourism policy is quietly teaching people that environmental protection requires sacrifice. We're not just saving hiking trails and coral reefs—we're changing how people think about growth, limits, and what's worth protecting. Tourism restrictions could be the trojan horse for climate action that actually works.A CALL TO ACT: Comprehensive Database of Eco-SolutionsTRUMPING TRUMP Database for the New American Resistance RevolutionEpisode WebpageEpisode 36: Touching on Similar Themes — 1.

November 2014 spelade jag in detta avsnitt med Henrik Larsson. Då hade han stått för en tränarbragd när han såg till att Falkenbergs FF klarade nytt allsvenskt kontrakt. Larsson var öppen om anbudet från Celtic, att han såg Falkenberg som bara är ett kliv på stegen uppåt i karriären och vilka tränare han lärt sig mest av. Dessutom gav han sin syn på John Guidetti i Celtic, bjöd på sina känslor över Lagerbäcks Islands-succé och Zlatans makalösa karriär samt att han trodde att Sverige hade goda chanser att ta medalj kommande år.

The small island nations that make up the Caribbean are incredibly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Many people and businesses are concentrated along the coastline, exposing them to intensifying hurricanes and rising sea levels. Are these hazards prompting greater displacement, either within the region or beyond? And could they reduce tourism, prompting economic shocks to countries dependent on vacationers? This episode discusses these issues and others with Natalie Dietrich Jones, a migration expert at the University of the West Indies.

In today's episode, we explore how constant connectivity and work stress can quietly invade our marriages. When work becomes all-consuming, it can turn into an idol and create emotional distance between spouses. We discuss why learning to leave work at work is a spiritual discipline and how true support means walking alongside your spouse, not having all the answers. You'll hear practical wisdom on setting boundaries together, sharing burdens, and seeking counsel early. Marriage is about more than success—it's about not facing struggles alone.   Episode Highlights:  Technology has blurred our boundaries between work and home.  Learning to leave work at work is a spiritual discipline. Being supportive doesn't mean you have to all the answers- it means you're walking alongside your spouse. The pace of modern culture doesn't allow proper mental closure.   Quotes from Today's Episodes: A lot of people in the workplace feel the expectation to be available 24/7/365 Work problems begin to feel like personal problems- like they need immediate attention. Our ultimate identity is not in our professional performance.  Work stress can be like an invisible third person in your marriage. When work becomes all consuming it shifts into an idol. Our marriages are about something bigger than career success. Marriage is about sharing burdens- not just the good stuff.  Trying to handle stress alone creates distance in the marriage. There's something spiritually significant about not facing struggles alone.  The most effective boundaries are the ones you create together. They need to know your concern comes from a place of care not criticism. The earlier you involve wise counsel the more effectively you can address issues before they become entrenched patterns.  Questions for Discussion: Do you currently have any transitional rituals in place? If not, what rituals can the two of you agree to implement?  Do you currently implement any device free times/ zones? Are you using technology to connect with your spouse in healthy ways?
