[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

What I'm suggesting is why aren't more scientists/people engaged in figuring out the how are we going to deal with this rather than why is it happening?  Cause I believe we are already at the point of no return and I don't know if climate change exists because of global warming caused by humans or not but I do know and am confident that the summers will continue to be hotter and longer moving forward.  So what are we going to do about it??

Politics. And extreme societal inertia. A brilliant MD/PhD friend who recently retired from the EPA told me he believes that our lives will be virtually unrecognizable in our lifetime due to climate change. Like I said, he recently retired, so "our lifetime" isn't a large number of years, but it isn't necessarily 5-10 either. .  [/quote]

OP here. Yeah, I do think that unrecognizable will not happen for another 20-25 years but I think within 5-10, our lives will need adapting. Even now, with the actual wildfires and air quality wildfires bring, it's a lot.  Walking outside for everyone is hard.  I just think it'll be worse in the near future.

I'd like to look at what kind of tech is being offered as a solution for how we adapt to our changing world.  I seriously think people need to stop putting so much energy into anger/debate of how we got here and what may or may not happen and face what is happening.  I certainly do not have any answers but I just wonder what options we have in the next few years to adapt to hotter and destructive weather.[/quote]
