Global Warming

This book takes as its baseline the fact that global warming is here to stay and is being caused by human activities. Both points are still arguable, but to present the arguments would need a bigger and more complex book, so what we get here is a dozen spreads outlining the most evident causes, features and effects of current manifestations of climate change. Floods in Europe, drought in Africa, deforestation, recycling and George W Bush’s contribution to the Kyoto Protocol all get into this unexceptional but unexceptionable series member, which should be considered as a useful gap-filler rather than a primary information source.
