The sun is getting hotter and life as we know it may continue becoming harder and more challenging. Are we ready to face the challenges of a changing climate? Solutions like depopulations have been suggested but these may be too extreme. What is the way forward?

I believe we’re not fully ready for accelerated climate change. The science is clear: the pace of change is faster than many governments, communities, and industries anticipated.
We see warning signs—more extreme weather, rising sea levels, and biodiversity loss—but our global response still struggles with coordination, funding, and political will.
That said, readiness isn’t just about prevention; it’s also about adaptation. Some regions and sectors are innovating with resilience strategies, green tech, and sustainable policies. But overall, the gap between what’s needed and what’s happening is still wide.
