And we put almost all effort to do it. Creativity. Money. Resources.

Hydropower dams require heavy investment in climate adaptation. Nuclear energy goes down due to lack of cooling from hot and dry rivers. Wind turbines experience higher O&M cost, and reduced lifetimes. Solar panels gets destroyed by hail. Energy is the key, but it is also forever changed by climate change.
Scientists argue that climate acts to amplify and accelerate other risks we face as society. From immigration across borders to food prices. The IPCC is based on consensus, and when hundreds of scientists are to agree on something, they are biased to compromise on a middle way. The impacts and urgency of climate change is likely to be underestimated by the scientific community. Act from people and companies is even more important.
