Recently, large parts of the world faced record high temperatures–another item on a long list of warning signs about the climate. This book is for the reader interested in having a better understanding of the nature and causes of climate change and the measures being undertaken.

Global Climate Change suggests success is unlikely and to prevent catastrophe, more radical and uncomfortable actions will be needed. Many groups in society (e.g. governments, economies, businesses, public services) will need to undertake such actions to mitigate climate change and deal with its consequences. This book provides guidance about what these actions will involve.

Industry Reviews

Professor Prowle has done a great job of setting out the scale of the challenge posed by climate change and highlighting how we look increasingly unlikely to avoid planetary warming with enormous consequences for humanity. The book is particularly good at describing the causes and consequences of climate change. I'd strongly recommend it to policymakers, students, academics and citizens.--Professor Peter Eckersley, Public policy academic This book provides a comprehensive explainer of climate change and how we can mitigate the risks or address the consequences. The author refers to realism rather than pessimism in his discussion about whether we have the international capability to meet these challenges. For those of us who are solution focussed it is a challenging read and a wake-up call.--Jacqueline Mallender, International public policy economist
