The science is in: Global warming is for real. But what does it all
"really" mean, and what can or should we do about it? This clear,
fluid narrative by a leading scientist and educator takes a
scrupulously balanced approach in explaining for the reader the
history of global climate monitoring and change, and 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.
"Global Warming For Beginners" is organized into five compelling
sections:
Global Warming, 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, Goodwin challenges readers with experiments they
can conduct to gain a better understanding of the science
underlying the problems facing our planet, and concludes with a
list of fifty easy actions people can choose from to start doing
their part in the effort to slow or stop global warming.
As with all For Beginners titles, this volume is illustrated
throughout with entertaining drawings that help readers understand
and retain the information in Goodwin's lively and comprehensive
text.
