Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. First Edition. This book takes an unflinching look at climate change, drawing upon the latest data to analyse what the next decades hold in store. With atmospheric CO2 at unprecedented levels and insufficient action being taken to prevent a rise in temperatures above 2 degrees centigrade, we are not just looking at significant disruption but the possibility of societal collapse. For the first time ever, the magnitude of this challenge is faced head on, with avenues to truly address it presented. Case studies and models from 16 authors around the world show ways that we can build adaptation and resilience, as well as what 'zero emissions' really mean. The book also provides a platform for those from a range of diverse backgrounds, whose unique experience and knowledge brings vital new perspectives. From those already feeling the impacts of climate change in the Global South to community leaders fighting to create real alternatives, we get a chance to understand the nuances and possibilities of the task ahead. - Perfectly timed for the Global UN summit on climate change in Glasgow (COP26) - On trend with mounting publicity on this issue - Presents an unflinching look at climate change and a unique stance on climate adaptation - Features 16 authors with diverse backgrounds THIS book is in very good condition with a small amount of wrinkling at the bottom of the last 40 or so pages (see photos).
