Vulnerability to climate change is shaped by economic, social, and geographical factors, which influence how it is distributed across the world. Cities are the crucible of where climate change will occur and the crucible of where we need to adapt.
Climate loss occurs when people are dispossessed of things they care about for which there are no real substitutes. Unlike economic impacts that can be measured through insurance or lost livelihoods, climate loss involves irreversible impacts that people can never get back.
While societies have adapted to climate change throughout history through agriculture, technology, and irrigation, it is foolish to assume that having better understanding of the science of climate change will automatically lead to an effective and smooth adaptation to the climate changes we are going to see. There is an imperative to prepare and act both individually and collectively.
