Climate adaptation as a viable tool cannot be explained in 10 minutes
Climate adaptation is one of the key tools for addressing global challenges related to climate change. This lecture, delivered by a data scientist specializing in climate change, critically focuses on using complex data instead of intuition in developing strategic approaches to planning energy mixes that reflect climate trends and the specific needs of individual countries. It emphasizes the necessity of eliminating inefficient primary energy consumption, optimizing its use, and only then addressing the replacement of sources – not the other way around. Allocating just ten minutes to a topic as broad as energy adaptation clearly shows that we are only marginally addressing essential issues.
