Adaptation isn't a technocratic issue, it is life or death.
– UN Secretary General
Antonio Guterres's Cop26 statement
Our actions may be impeded . . .
but there can be no impeding our intentions or dispositions.
Because we can accommodate and adapt.
The mind adapts and converts to its own purposes the obstacle to our acting.
– Marcus Aurelius
