The Weather Makers: A Call to Action for Residents of Planet Earth! #Environment
By Lizmckeown1955 @WritersBoostThe environment is my cause and I show this by recycling whenever I get the chance. I'm sure this helps some, but my husband and I are only two people. They say that super storms and aggressive weather are only going to get worse. Tim Flannery's book has a timeless and timely message.
Synopsis: An international best seller embraced and endorsed by policy makers, scientists, writers and energy industry executives from around the world, Tim Flannery’sThe Weather Makerscontributed in bringing the topic of global warming to national prominence. For the first time, a scientist provided an accessible and comprehensive account of the history, current status, and future impact of climate change, writing what has been acclaimed by reviewers everywhere as the definitive book on global warming.With one out of every five living things on this planet committed to extinction by the levels of greenhouse gases that will accumulate in the next few decades, we are reaching a global climatic tipping point.The Weather Makers is both an urgent warning and a call to arms, outlining the history of climate change, how it will unfold over the next century, and what we can do to prevent a cataclysmic future. Originally somewhat of a global warming skeptic, Tim Flannery spent several years researching the topic and offers a connect-the-dots approach for a reading public who has received patchy or misleading information on the subject. Pulling on his expertise as a scientist to discuss climate change from a historical perspective, Flannery also explains how climate change is interconnected across the planet.Check it out here: http://australianwritersrock.com/product/the-weather-makers-how-man-is-changing-the-climate/
