• As precursor to the conclusion, the chapter gathers the concepts and examples so far explored to present new thoughts for human adaptation to the effects of climate change. One of the aims of the chapter is to better understand the concept of a wearable ecology for adaptive living and conceive new flexible societal forms of habitation in response to climate change. It deploys the analogy of the Möbius strip combined with the concept of swarming to establish equitable micro-societies of self-determination in environmental adaptation. The chapter turns its attention to rural and city populations' experience of the effects of climate change via living-with and building-out the natural environment and how this affects the goal of reaching global sustainability. Finally, the chapter looks at human adaptation to climate change through unlocking the genetic code for human adaptation as a way of life in a turbulent climatic Earth.
