He warned that once exceeded, recovery could take decades or even centuries.<\/p>\n<p>Pointing to renewables as a solution to climate resilience, he said increased renewable capacity can strengthen the world&#8217;s capability to resist extreme weather caused by climate change<\/p>\n<p>He concluded with a call to action: &#8220;In the fight against climate change, the most important variable is time.
