Nonsense.
Short term, and when those alternatives are available, that is usually true. However, Eskimos (Inuit) have been found to have genetic mutations that allow them to process their high fat diet differently (more "positively") than, say, white Europeans.

Well, yes - we put on sweaters or sun screen. This stuff is silly. The worst predicted temperature changes don't pose any significant selection pressure to human beings - historically if one crop fails, we grow another or move, we don't grow flippers or pelts, (although there's a guy at the gym I have to wonder about. He says he's part Sasquatch).
