There’s a scuffle happening
right now
between
folks with
an optimistic view
of future climate change action
and
folks with
a pessimistic (doomer) view.
The thing is…
leaders should be listening
to BOTH views
and preparing action plans
based on BOTH scenarios.
As a project manager,
I usually craft
three scenarios
– Best Case,
Worst Case
and
Most Likely Case.
Then I prepare
for ALL THREE
scenarios.
Because ALL THREE
are possible.
Will some of that preparation
not be utilized.
In the case of the worst case scenario,
f*ck, I hope so.
But if the worst case happens,
that preparation
could be the difference
between surviving and perishing.
Prepare for the best
AND
the worst case scenarios.
