Wired Magazine’s Spencer Reiss advises โ€œClimate Change is Inevitable. Get Used To It.โ€

It is, however, easier to be right about the first part than sanguine about the second. Rather than putting our energies into limiting or reversing the central problem of greenhouse gas emission, Reiss would have us concentrate on โ€œadaptation,โ€ designing and siting houses well away from rising tides and putting our farming faith inย Monsanto.

He concludes: โ€œWe’re in charge hereโ€ – invoking a level of hubris that may be more frightening than climate change itself.
