About the edition

Climate adaptation is usually a story about buildings, energy and infrastructure. Climate Proof Pill starts with the body.

This seven-part edition follows the problem of heat from physiology and wet-bulb conditions to the history of Soviet actoprotectors. It then asks what a credible modern research programme would need to establish.

It is an inquiry into a difficult proposition: if medicine can change what a body tolerates, who benefits—and what kind of evidence should be demanded before that promise becomes policy?

A publication, not a supplement or a treatment.
