Moving every 2-3 years is not ecologically sound.

Why? I don't have that much stuff to begin with, and I try to buy used when I arrive in a new place. The only added cost is the plane ticket, and I probably fly less than the average vacationer.

Even if you're right, moving frequently is a fact of life for young people who grew up away from the west/east costs. It's the only way for young people who grew up in the midwest to launch a successful career.

Hometown --> college --> internships --> back to college --> grad school --> first job --> second job --> etc.
