"It's wrong to think of these as thresholds--that as soon as we pass 1.5°C, we're toast. That's not true. There is nothing special about the number 1.5°C; it's not that things are liveable at 1.499°C and as soon as we hit 1.501°C the planet becomes unbearable. There is a significant increase in the risk of tipping points and non-linear climate impacts once we start to get into the 1.5°C-2°C range. But that doesn't make 1.5°C an all-or-nothing threshold. In fact, it makes every 0.1°C even more important once we start to move into that zone. The difference is that many climate scientists view these numbers as targets. It would be incredible to meet them, but we need to keep going even if we don't."

The quote mkaes me question if this was part of Adar's thought process, too, after he and the uruk managed to create Mordor and began to settle there?
He and the uruk had been out of Forodwaith for centuries and they'd had to survive Morgoth and Sauron back then, and after, they had to survive in the wilderness, with all of Middle-earth against them.
I find it possible that he'd have had *some* trouble settling into a more 'mundane' life afterwards. Like, he still carried his armor and broadsword and was incredibly suspicious of Halbrand (for good reason). He was still alert to the possibility of a fight, a war.
Not saying that Halbrand saying Sauron had returned was a *relief* but, I imagine it might have felt strangely *familiar* at least. This was territory he knew. That he could navigate. While the other uruk, who were not as long lived, only wanted to settle and find some measure of peace.
