Climate Change For Dummies (Elizabeth May)

Master the hottest-and most chilling-topic in the world today More and more frequent extreme weather events occur each year, and wildlife everywhere is increasingly endangered. Science fiction or science fact, most climate experts see this as our world on climate change-and, according to polls, a majority of people around the globe agree. Climate Change For Dummies allows you to investigate this hottest of hotly debated issues for yourself-examining its causes, the way it affects our lives, and what we can all do to make a difference. This straightforward guide-cowritten by the former leader of Canada's Green Party and the Canadian Chief of Staff to the Minister of Natural Resources-sifts the fact from the fiction: Is climate change caused by human activity or by natural elements beyond our control? What contribution can clean energy make? What are our best and worst-case scenarios? What are the likely long- and short-term effects? How can human activity can impact the environment? Can individuals and governments help reverse the possible effects? Which are the best sources of cleaner energy? With the IPCC predicting a 2.5-10 F warming over the next century, this complex subject will be making temperatures soar for years to come-on both sides of the debate. Climate Change For Dummies is the ideal tool to navigate these increasingly choppy waters-and to make an informed difference where you can.
