‘Daunting but doable’: Europe urged to prepare for 3C of global heating

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/feb/16/europe-climate-advisory-board-3c-global-heating

> Advisory board member says adapting is ‘not rocket science’ but Europe already paying price for lack of preparation

Not really adaptation as 3c means it keeps getting warmer from the tipping points having been crossed, over about 1.5-2c means civilization inevitably collapses, it's only a matter of when after that.

All this really does (sea walls etc) is kick the can down the road to ensure civilizations destruction.

The only adaptation is how to restructure society (banning all cars etc) to get to near zero emissions, our natural sinks can take up about 2t CO2 per person. Higher emissions then that is failure. We can start by banning flying, starting with private jets

At least vote Green to move the Overton Window. Voting the same way and expecting a different result won't work.
