It seem we do have the ability to control the climate, because that's what we're doing. So, we can stop making it worse which is good!

But we're definitely going to have to adapt because even if we stop it we've already changed things somewhat. The question is who, where, how much. And how much the adaptation will cost, and whether people can afford it, and and and.

How exactly is the climate worse today? The planet is greener than ever. Warming isn't intrinsically bad, as people are more likely to die from cold rather than heat.

Perhaps for you it's fine. For low lying states it's not good. Turns out that's Florida too. Australia had to add levels to their fire danger charts. etc, etc... look, on the off chance that your remark was in good faith and you're really interested in an answer, try the recent Chatham House report [1], or the IPCC ones, or the US national assessment (forgot the name - google it for me will ya?) [1]https://www.chathamhouse.org/2021/09/climate-change-risk-ass..., or the Potsdam Institute ones, to scratch the surface. You know, do your own research.

Indeed it is.

You win some, you lose some.

Those are projections for the future. The implications of the GP was that the climate is worse today already. Where's the evidence for that? It's warmer, of course, but that doesn't imply "worse".

You cannot be paying attention. Or trolling. Hopefully trolling.

Trolling implies agency. Repeating bland climate change denial isn’t really something people with strong agency do.

Ad-hominem attacks aren’t a good way to conduct any discussion.
