Book
Climate change for dummies / by Elizabeth May and John Kidder ; Zoë Caron, co-author of Global Warming for Dummies.
More and more frequent extreme weather events occur each year, and wildlife everywhere is increasingly endangered. Science fiction or science fact, most climate experts see this as our world on climate change-and, according to polls, a majority of people around the globe agree. Climate Change For Dummies allows you to investigate this hottest of hotly debated issues for yourself-examining its causes, the way it affects our lives, and what we can all do to make a difference. This straightforward guide-cowritten by the former leader of Canada's Green Party and the Canadian Chief of Staff to the Minister of Natural Resources-sifts the fact from the fiction: Is climate change caused by human activity or by natural elements beyond our control? What contribution can clean energy make? What are our best and worst-case scenarios?
