The evidence continues to mount: Climate change is for real! But what does it all really mean, and what can we do about it? In this concise, highly readable narrative, a leading environmental scientist and educator takes a scrupulously balanced approach to explaining the history of global climate monitoring and change. Here are the who’s, how’s, what’s, when’s, where’s and why’s of the interaction between human activity and recent trends in the Earth’s climate.
Climate Change For Beginners is organized in five compelling sections:
An Introduction
The Cause
The Consequences
The Solutions
What Steps Can I Take?
Working from the premise that no one can do everything but everyone can do something, Dean Goodwin challenges readers with experiments they can conduct on their own to better understand the science underlying the problems facing our planet; he concludes with a list of 50 easy actions people can take to start doing their part in the effort to slow or stop climate change.
