Thanks, Mr. Chair.
I have a question for Mr. Burton. It seems adaptation has become the poor cousin of this debate, receiving little attention. Is that not partially because it's so much more expensive for a country, and it's unpredictable? It's difficult for a government to take cost accounting for adaptation seriously when there are so many unknowns in the future, compounded with how much more expensive it is to do something rather than prevent the thing from happening in the first place. Is that not why this conversation gets left to the end and receives so much less attention?
Mr. Burton.
