Impacts beyond 1.5oC, the agreed maximum limit-target for global overheating, are already here. In this context, adaptation, preparedness and resilience-building are no longer optional. They become central, pivotal to whether we survive, let alone flourish.

Enter Transformative Adaptation, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions in the same breath as it guards us against the impacts of those emissions. This helps transform our civilisation to be in readiness. Transformative Adaptation is the quintessential idea whose time has come. To be ahead of the curve—and to be able to bend the curve better—read this book.
