Take a Cool Guess—The Fun Quiz on Renewable Energy and Environmental Sustainability. Today’s Topic: Adapting To Climate Change

Question: We all have a sense that climate disasters with devastating effects are on the rise.  Between 1980 and 2019, the United States experienced an average of 6.5 disasters per year that cost at least $1 billion.  What has been the average since 2015?

Answer: Can be found at Clean Energy Answers.

Relevance:  Climate change mitigation and adaptation sound expensive, and they are.  But the price is going up exponentially with each passing year.

It’s heartening to see that the new presidential administration is taking this matter seriously, but success can only derive from a concerted effort on the part of all public and private sector actors.
