Is it hot enough yet for destruction of human infrastructure with droughts and hurricanes to be faster than we can rebuild it?
Survivability (of ‘the fittest’) has always been — is now — and will *increasingly* be about **adaptability** at-scale.
Full stop.
The biggest risk is some kind of feedback loop that spirals. This is why climate change is an urgent crisis, even if the probability is low, it’s a true existential risk that we can’t take.
