Adapting.

“As our ancestors were on the move, great ice sheets advanced and retreated across Eurasia and North America, temperatures rose and fell as Earth wobbled on her axis, making even the climate so much shifting sand. What did the members of Homo sapiens possess that allowed them to endure when so many other members of our human family did not?

When I think of human ingenuity, from learning to spark fire to splitting the atom, I dare hope that somewhere deep in the modern psyche lie the essential skills for adapting to a world that looks nothing like the one we have come to take for granted.”
