Compelling and timely, award-winning author Elizabeth Rusch's The Twenty-One tells the gripping inside story of the ongoing landmark federal climate change lawsuit, Juliana vs. United States of America.

The Climate Change Debate: A Reference Handbook provides an in-depth look at climate change facts and statistics.

Contains articles in which the authors examine some of the environmental problems facing the world in the twenty-first century, and look at policies that have been adopted to address concerns over land, air and water quality, and climate change at the global, national, state, and local levels.

The authors outline two possible scenarios for our planet. In one, they describe what life on Earth will be like by 2050 if we fail to meet the Paris Agreement's climate targets. They argue for confronting the climate crisis head-on, with determination and optimism. The Future We Choose presents our options and tells us what governments, corporations, and each of us can, and must, do to fend off disaster.

A movement is already underway to combat not only the environmental effects of climate change but also to fight for climate justice and make a fair and livable future possible for everyone. And young people are not just part of that movement, they are leading the way. They are showing us that this moment of danger is also a moment of great opportunity--an opportunity to change everything.

How has the U.S. government protected our environment so that people can live and work safely in an always-changing world? From Earth Day to a possible Green New Deal, this book will take a look at the laws enacted to protect our water, land, and air. The Wilderness Act and the Endangered Species Act changed how we approach and maintain our land and its wildlife; carbon taxes and climate change may alter it further.

The Paris Climate Agreement explores the issues surrounding the 2015 international agreement to combat climate change.

The climate crisis is the issue of our time. Scientists have warned for over 100 years that burning fossil fuels and destroying nature will warm the earth's atmosphere and affect the climate in adverse ways: more severe and intense storms, prolonged heat waves, drought, flooding, wildfires, rising sea levels and ocean acidification.

Provides a holistic consideration of climate change that goes beyond pure science, fleshing out the discussion by considering cultural, historical, and policy-driven aspects of this important issue

Contains articles that examine issues and debates related to climate change, covering animals, astronomy, diseases and health effects, economics, nations and peoples, pollution, water resources, and other topics;arranged alphabetically.

Presents an examination of the build-up of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere and the effects on climate change and global warming.

We already know what climate change is and many of us understand the human causes. But what will climate change do to our world? Who will be affected (spoiler: all of us!) and how will our lives change in the future?

A comprehensive guide to the ways we can all make small changes in our lives to help tackle climate change - a topic which, it is now becoming clear, is of utmost importance and urgency. Together, we can change the world There is little doubt that our beautiful planet is now under huge threat; our weather is more extreme, plastic litters our oceans, industrial production and farming methods wreak havoc on the environment and mass deforestation has led to the extinction of many species. Carry on this way and it's almost certain that sea levels will continue to rise, there will be extreme heatwaves, loss of the polar ice caps and mass pollution; in short, a very worrying future for us all. We need to take action before it's too late, and we can all do our bit to help. This guide is full of simple tips we can all incorporate into our daily lives, and will demonstrate how small eco-friendly changes can have a huge positive effect on the world around us. They might even save the planet.

Hope Jahren illuminates the science behind key inventions, clarifying how electricity, large-scale farming, and automobiles have both helped and harmed our world. She explains the current and projected consequences of unchecked global warming, from superstorms to rising sea levels, resulting from the unprecedented amounts of greenhouse gases being released into our atmosphere.

The author describes possible ways global warming will affect the Earth and people, including scientific research that support his theories.
