Though still hotly debated by some,
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 industry leaders are attempting to understand
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
series explore in detail the range of current and
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
information on what may be the most significant issue
of our time.
Many marriages have not successfully weathered the challenges of
modern life. God hates divorce, but it is happening to
all-believers and nonbelievers alike. Who is safe today? When we
let God take the lead in our marriages, He kindles love, patience,
endurance, tolerance, and the list can go on and on. This is a
story about a young couple Jesse and Joy. Both are believers in the
living God but come close to losing their marriage.
When Pea Llewellyn's dizzy but dazzling single mum becomes Marina
Cove, author of the bestselling Mermaid Girls books, everything
changes. It's time to leave their tiny flat in Tenby for a proper
house in London, and a whole new life. Pea likes the red front
door, and the attic bedroom all to herself. She even likes her
hideous new school uniform, in a masochistic Malory Towers sort of
way. But there's an empty chair beside her in every lesson, and no
one seems to want to fill it. In the absence of volunteers, Pea is
going to have to acquire herself a best friend . . . Meet Pea, the
girl with a head full of dreams, in this funny and entertaining
story where she decides what she wants to be.
Eleven-year-old Pea and her wonderfully wacky family are back for
their second adventure in this fabulously funny series. After
securing herself a best friend and settling into London life, Pea
is now contemplating her future and what exactly she should be when
she grows up. Should she be a writer (like Mum)? An artist (like
their crazy new au pair Klaudia)? A footballer? A pet therapist?
Join Pea as she attempts to find out the answers - with hilarious
results!
