Yes, that whole adaptation tactic (to deal with climate change) strikes me as a kind of "non-solution." It's like saying nature isn't a problem, our ability to adapt is a problem.

Gee, I think I'd agree with that, as a general philosophical statement.
But in this case....

I guess it's a semantic problem. What do we mean by adapting?

Would being smart enough to change the climate be an adaptation?

Hmm, we've been doing that for thousands of years already.
That's been the secret to our success, so far!

Maybe it's time to start changing climate on a larger, more intentional, sustainable scale.
