Sinopsis
THE TURNING PLANET
Climate Tipping Points and the Future
A breathtaking exploration of the forces reshaping our world.
In The Turning Planet, Dr. Horen Kuecuekyan brings together rigorous climate science and deeply human storytelling, revealing the fragile systems that keep Earth habitable, and the tipping points that could transform it.
As one reviewer writes:
""The author has built something remarkable with this book. The scientific rigor is there throughout, but what makes it work as literature is the refusal to let the science become abstract, always returning to the human scale."
From the farmer watching the wheat beneath a shifting sky,
to a glacier receiving its funeral as centuries of ice collapse,
to the haunting possibility of a frozen mammoth awakening after forty thousand years, this book bridges the gap between planetary physics and human experience.
Through clear explanations of the atmosphere, oceans, carbon cycle, and climate feedbacks, "The Turning Planet" reveals how a delicate planetary balance, maintained for billions of years, is now being pushed toward critical thresholds.
Both, a scientific journey and a human story, this book captures the fragile equilibrium of our world and asks the question that defines our century:
What happens when a planet begins to turn?
