I am a climate realist. It has become apparent to me that the worst will be inevitable in the coming years and that climate change will take decades to reverse so my take is that climate policy should also prioritize adapting to this phenomenon while we still can.

We can look at hot dry regions in the past in order to learn how to deal with the heat while still conserving energy.

      The problem is that it’s difficult to say at the moment, but the mere fact that it’s a real possibility is rather concerning all of itself. The bad news is that all the climate change trends have been happening at a much faster rate than was expected. We may also hit tipping points like methane release from the permafrost that could have profound effects completely out of our control.
