Last chance to preorder! Transformative #Adaptation is adaptation that works with, not against nature.
It reduces greenhouse gas emissions and protects us from their impacts. This helps our civilisation build #resilience to our #metacrisis, and makes life worth living.

Great to see some honesty surfacing at last… As I’ve been saying for the last three years, the #CoP process is not fit for purpose. Moreover, I’d add that it’s really hard to see any way back for it now. The (corruption and) failure appear systemic.
