While a few degrees' rise in the average temperature of Earth's surface may not sound like a catastrophe, the race against climate change is truly a race for survival. At stake are the futures of billions of the planet's inhabitants, including people, animals, and plants. This book examines the causes and consequences of climate change, such as extreme weather and rising sea levels.
The race is on -- The problem -- Extreme and unpredictable -- Ecosystems in turmoil -- Melting ice -- Cutting the carbon.
