Reminder that there's no "it's too late, its over" for climate change

That can be totally misread.

I was going to present a partial rebuttal invoking politics but then I saw that this is [email protected].

Another positive is that we humans are highly adaptive. We’re already making a lot of changes towards renewables and improving the efficiency and reliability of our electric grids and other large infrastructure. Climate change definitely brings a ton of challenges with it (and some of the changes have already taken place) but I think it also gives us new opportunities such as longer growing seasons up North.

I don't think healthy skepticism is forbidden here, so feel free to write your rebuttal.
