Descriere completă

This book is an up-to-date, accessible and comprehensive guide to climate change. It covers:

  • The long history of climate change science, that stretches back to 19th century;
  • The current evidence for climate change and the impacts that are already occurring around the world;
  • How we model future climate change and the different greenhouse gas emissions scenarios that have been developed to represent the whole range of possible futures; and
  • The potential changes in future global temperatures, precipitation, ice cover and sea level, along with their implications for human society, health and wellbeing.

The book also looks at the political tensions surrounding climate change and provides a detail analysis of the international climate negotiations from the Rio Earth Summit right up to today. Also examined is the political emergence of the global net zero emissions narrative and what it means for geopolitics, countries, companies and individuals. Potential solutions are considered in detail in chapters on mitigation (reducing emissions), adaptations (protecting people) and geoengineering (cooling the planet).

To ensure the very best solutions are used, the final chapter makes 10 recommendations for each of the following: Governments, Companies and Individuals to help shape our future. The book also calls for major changes at the international level to help move beyond the current economic system and move toward a more sustainable global economy.
