Last year, awareness about global warming reached a tipping point. Now one of the most dynamic writers and one of the most respected scientists in the field of climate change offer the first concise guide to both the problems and the solutions. Guiding us past a blizzard of information and misinformation, Gabrielle Walker and Sir David King explain the science of warming, the most cutting-edge technological solutions from small to large, and the national...

Authentic and inspiring, “Everything That Rises” personalizes the realities of climate change by paralleling our relationship to the planet with the way we interact within our own homes. Nineteen-year-old Brianna Craft is having a panic attack. A professor's matter-of-fact explanation of the phenomenon known as "climate change" has her white-knuckling the table in her first environmental studies lecture. Out of her father's house, she was supposed...

A thought-provoking look at the unsettled science of global warming-from a former volcanologist, geophysicist, and US Geological Survey scientist. Thousands of scientists are convinced beyond any reasonable doubt that recent global warming is being caused by emissions of greenhouse gases and that we must act immediately to reduce these emissions or else we may render Earth unlivable for our children and grandchildren. Some even say "the science...

In The Politically Incorrect Guide(tm) to Global Warming and Environmentalism, Christopher C. Horner tears the cover off the Left's manipulation of environmental issues for political purposes--and lays out incontrovertible evidence for the fact that catastrophic man-made global warming is just more Chicken-Little hysteria, not actual science. He explains why, although Al Gore and his cronies among the media elites and UN globalists endlessly bleat...

"The world is waking up to a new reality: wildfires are now seasonal in California, the Northeast is getting less and less snow each winter, and the ice sheets in the Arctic and Antarctica are melting fast. Heat is the first order threat that drives all other impacts of the climate crisis. And as the temperature rises, it is revealing fault lines in our governments, our politics, our economy, and our values. The basic science is not complicated: Stop...

In this counter-attack on Al Gore and others who campaign on global warming, Nigel Lawson argues that science is only part of the story. He believes that for governments to make informed decisions about the path ahead they must listen to economists as well as scientists and ask what the most cost-effective method of tackling the issue is.

"One man - visionary billionaire restaurant chain magnate T. R. Schmidt, Ph.D. - has a Big Idea for reversing global warming, a master plan perhaps best described as "elemental." But will it work? And just as important, what are the consequences for the planet and all of humanity should it be applied?"-- Provided by publisher.

"The planet is getting warmer, and its affecting everything from the climate to sea levels. Its also affecting Earths inhabitantsplants, animals, and people alike. In this information-rich title, readers learn about the phenomenon of global warming and how rising temperatures impact the future of our planet. Age-appropriate text, fact boxes, and detailed photographs make this complex topic accessible for elementary science students. By the end of...

The product of a unique collaboration between a pioneering earth scientist and an award-winning science writer, Fixing Climate takes an unconventional approach to the vitally important issue of global warming. Wallace S Broecker a longtime researcher at Columbia University's Lamont- Doherty Earth Observatory, warned about the possible consequences of global warming decades before the concept entered popular consciousness. Hooked on climate studies...

Describes the gradual warming of our planet, its causes and effects, and ways in which we can all help.
