Written by Dinyar Godrej. Published in Canada in association with New Internationalist Publications Ltd. by Between the Lines, 2006. Description: |
| Each new scientific report
on climate change makes increasingly alarming predictions about global warming.
Yet most governments have responded slowly, if at all, pointing to an attitude
of denial and a reluctance to implement the major changes needed. This fully
updated edition of The No-Nonsense Guide to Climate Change looks at the
latest findings, explores the options, and explains why carbon emissions
trading and nuclear power are not the answer. It clearly shows why measures to
clean up our act, cut energy use, and improve energy efficiency are of
paramount importance. This book sifts scientific theory from scientific fact and presents the impacts on health, farming and wildlife, along with an analysis of political negotiations on the issue and potential solutions to it. "Books like this are invaluable tools to spread critical information across a vast section of society. Dinyar Godrej writes in an engaging style, avoiding jargon." Athena Ronquillo-Ballesteros, Greenpeace Campaigns Co-ordinatorWell illustrated with charts and graphs. |
