Product Description

Review

"The chapters I have seen amount to a useful simplification in an unusual format of some very complex issues."
-- Sir Crispin Tickell GCMG KCVO

"This is an excellent, witty and imaginative book that looks at climate change through the lens of simplicity without the jargon and scientific detail which so often dogs this subject. It has a humour and tongue in cheek approach which highlights both the importance of the subject, but the need to engage the reader and not fill him or her with a hopeless sense of guilt. Enjoy¡¨ -- Tim Smit CBE Chief Executive of the Eden Project, Cornwall UK.

"helps to make a complex body of factual material accessible... useful to the climate change novice and seasoned eco-crusader alike."
-- Law Society Gazette, 23rd October 2008

5.0 out of 5 stars Global warming encyclopedia 21 Sep 2008
Format:Paperback
A well written and researched book on the subject, dealing with the known scientific facts on global warming, sourced by the author from many different reference points including NASA, NOAA, The World Wildlife Fund, and Sterns Review on the Economics of Climate Change to name a few. The A-Z format, makes this a very unusual and easy read in this particular subject matter, and the book comes with some intriguing and amusing illustrations which add a little light heartedness to this worrying subject. I was a little sceptical about the problem to be honest, but after reading this book, the scientific facts would appear clear... we dont' have much time left to take action to avert serious problems if the causes of global warming are not addressed soon! An essential read on the topic!

Format:Paperback
"A very interesting book, dealing with all aspects of climate change and global warming, and especially good for someone who knew very little about the subject, like myself ! The book is basically a factual account on the topic of global warming, with each chapter taking you through an alphabetic journey through the subject matter. Well written and illustrated throughout. A very handy and concise guide.... if not a little un-nerving ! "

if the burning of fossil fuels continues unchanged, the Earth could warm by as much as 6°C (10.8°F) by 2100. This would mean almost certain extinction of most of life on Earth! &quote;
