What We Know About Climate Change

by Kerry Emanuel

  • REFERENCE
  • 2012
  • HARD COVER
  • 85 PAGES

MIT atmospheric scientist Kerry Emanuel outlines the basic science of global warming and how the current consensus has emerged in this second edition of his valuable primer. He also covers two major developments since the first edition: the most recent round of updated projections from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change climate simulations, and the so-called "climategate" incident and the collapse of popular and political support in the United States for dealing with climate change.  (GEO46, $14.95)
