In this thought-provoking title, environmental science expert and professor Frank R. Spellman, PhD, gives a clear-eyed and concise overview of climate change--explaining what is really happening to our planet, why it is happening, and what can be done about it. Emphasizing scientific data and climate change indicators, Spellman gives a sober(but not panicked) assessment of the problems(natural and human-made) we face and looks at possible mitigating factors and solutions. Understanding Climate Change: A Practical Guide is an invaluable resource to the student, policy maker, and others facing this crisis. An extensive glossary demystifies much of the jargon employed in the public arena.
