Global Climate Change and Human Life (Paperback)

The current warming of the Earth is leading to important social questions being raised: How warm will the Earth become and when? What effect will it have on human life? Should we try to slow down these trends? If so, how do we do this while balancing the economic needs of society? Global Climate Change and Human Life attempts to answer some of these questions, providing facts and theories that will help the reader formulate rational opinions and gain a new way to think about the complexities of the subject and the future of the global environment and climate. Divided into three parts, this book covers the composition of the atmosphere, the workings of the earth's climate and how the changing global climate will affect the environment and how that will affect human life. Featuring numerous questions and exercises and worked examples throughout the text, this book is intended for undergraduate students taking courses in global climate change. Based on a course that the author has given to students from a number of subject disciplines the book will appeal to all needing a well-written, unified introduction to the subject.
