Environment

An international bestseller, the first climate book that doesn't leave the reader depressed: realistic and hopeful, witty and clarifying.

Started to worry about just how hot our world is going to get, and whether you can do anything about it? As the effect of climate change grows by the day, so does the amount of hot air and bluster spouted by politicians and businessmen on what we should do about it. Using investigative journalism, this work presents facts and inspiring ideas.
