We're not going to remediate climate change, full stop. If there was a time to do anything for climate change to change course it was probably 40 years ago.
Climate change is here and the cascade of events has been in motion for a while. The next couple of decades will see an exponential acceleration of ice melting, marine ecosystems going bust, and of course a slew of effects on land, from wild fires to floods.
It's here, it's happening and we have to adapt. Hopefully we'll be able to keep a certain way of life of abundance similar to what we're used to. But we might be forced to change some things or do without others. Time will tell.
