Climate change has been in the general and legal news a good bit lately. Most of the news has to do with whether or how the federal and state environmental regulators ought to limit emissions of greenhouse gases. You see less discussion of whether or how the government or enterprises ought to adapt to the likelihood of change. Adaptation seems less controversial and more likely to create opportunity for those who do it right.
This column is not about any controversy over climate change. Some contend that there is scientific debate over whether the climate is changing, and whether that change results from human activity. Others insist that the scientific community has reached a consensus that human activity has caused Earth to warm since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
