Why does Fagan think there is some uncertainty about if we can adapt to climate change, as humans did in earlier times? we have a larger global population and many people living harvest to harvest, who continue to be more vulnerable to shifts in climate humans today have much greater technological lock-in, making adaptation nearly impossible humans have never been good at adapting until the circumstances are too late more humans do not think there is a need to adapt to climate change (or think that it is a problem)
