Get clear about why climate change is so complicated and discover
how you can help reverse it More and more frequent extreme weather
events occur each year, and planet Earth is in danger of developing
more climates where life -- whether animal, vegetable, or human --
is unsustainable. Climate Change For Dummies explains how rising
temperatures, shrinking lakes, rising oceans, and shifting weather
patterns affect your life on a daily basis. And of course the book
goes a step further and offers suggestions about how you can take
steps to limit your impact on the environment and help to reverse
climate change. This straightforward guide demystifies the impact
of climate's No. 1 enemy -- carbon dioxide -- and breaks down the
many sources of this damaging but inescapable gas. From there, the
book reveals how rising CO2 levels affect the weather, water
levels, plant and animal species around the world, the food you
eat, and your health. But the situation isn't hopeless! Climate
Change For Dummies outlines actions governments, industries, and
you can take to fight global warming and turn the tide to live in a
cooler world. Discover details about * Short- and long-term effects
of climate change * How some actions contribute to climate change
and others reduce it * The many options for renewable energy and
the pros and cons of nuclear energy * Actions nongovernmental
organizations (NGOs) are taking to draw attention to the climate
crisis * The debate around whether climate change even needs to be
addressed Climate change won't be easy to overcome, but when you're
armed with the facts, you can do your best to make a difference.
Let Climate Change For Dummies point you in the right direction.
