PDF-[READ]-Deep Adaptation: Navigating the Realities of Climate Chaos

Deep adaptation refers to the personal and collective changes that might help us to prepare for and live with a climateinfluenced breakdown or collapse of our societies It is a framework for responding to the terrifying realization of increasing disruption by committing ourselves to reducing suffering while saving more of society and the natural world This is the first book to show how professionals across different sectors are beginning to incorporate the acceptance of likely or unfolding societal breakdown into their work and lives They do not assume that our current economic social and political systems can be made resilient in the face of climate change but instead they demonstrate the caring and creative ways that people are responding to the most difficult realization with which humanity may ever have to come to termsEdited by the originator of the concept of deep adaptation Jem Bendell and a leading climate activist and strategist Rupert Read this book is the essential introduction to the concept practice and emerging global movement of Deep Adaptation to climate chaos. Determinism and Randomness . Classical physics is deterministic!. If you know where you started you know where you are going. Randomness:. Quantum randomness is truly random and unpredictable. A lot of randomness is actually complexity and uncertainty. Anand Patwardhan. Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay. Asian Climate Change Workshop. Indian Institute of Science, July 2011.
