global warming is now an accepted fact in the wider
scientific community. The average temperature of
the Earth is clearly getting warmer. As scientists
work to develop accurate models to predict the full
impact of global warming, researchers, policy makers

and agree on what can be done to minimize or even
reverse the impact of human contributions to global
climate change.
Volumes in the new Confronting Global Warming

impending challenges the planet faces as a result of
global warming. Climate change potentially affects all
aspects of modern life, from weather and agriculture
to health and politics. The series examines these
issues from a variety of expert perspectives, highlights
key future challenges, and addresses the pros and
cons of potential solutions -- all in a clear, unbiased
manner. Confronting Global Warming is the perfect
resource for students needing up-to-date, authoritative
