Based on extensive empirical evidence, it explains weather events that indicate climate changes evolution and presents important topics connected to climate change, such as political controversies, climate policy, as well as Native American perspectives. Finally, it presents attempted solutions, including policy recommendations and technological proposals for necessary changes in our world. Providing a well-written and easy-to-follow overview of knowledge of science-based geophysical facts, including thermodynamics, the book puts a strong emphasis on why expeditious action on global warming is urgent. The book also explains why smart greenhouse-gas reduction strategies will ignite economic growth, generate new domestic jobs, protect public health, and strengthen energy security. Not assuming a scientific background on the part of the reader, Global Warming and the Climate Crisis: Science, Spirit, and Solutions offers an ideal supplemental reading in many types of courses in Earth sciences, climate policy, climate change sciences, as well as politics of climate change, from high school through undergraduate. General readers also will benefit from its treatment of this very important and timely issue. 001454161 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001454161 650_0 $$aClimatic changes. 001454161 650_0 $$aGlobal warming. 001454161 650_0 $$aClimate change mitigation. 001454161 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001454161 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aJOHANSEN, BRUCE E.$$tGLOBAL WARMING AND THE CLIMATE CRISIS.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PU, 2022$$z3031123530$$w(OCoLC)1332779773 001454161 852__ $$bebk 001454161 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-12354-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001454161 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1454161$$pGLOBAL_SET 001454161 980__ $$aBIB 001454161 980__ $$aEBOOK 001454161 982__ $$aEbook 001454161 983__ $$aOnline 001454161 994__ $$a92$$bISE
