Forget about changing weather -- just adapt

IPN Opinion article

Author: Richard Tren

A new book, Adapt or Die - the science, politics and economics of climate change edited by Kendra Okonski - offers another path.

Adapt or Die is a collection of papers by some leading climatologists, energy experts and policy researchers. It does not deny that climates change nor that man can play a role in climate change.

The book argues that in the face of an uncertain and changing climate, the best option for mankind is to adapt to climate as man has done for thousands of years, rather than trying to change it.
