Managing the climate crisis : assessing our risks, options, and prospects / Robert O. Schneider. by Schneider, Robert O. Santa Barbara, California : Praeger, [2016] Description:  247 pages ; 25 cm Contents:  Feeling the heat -- What does science tell us? -- The false debate: a confused public -- Risks and vulnerabilities: making the planetary personal -- Climate change mitigation and adaptation -- Policy options and prospects -- Time is not on our side. Summary:  According to the 2014 U.S. climate report, temperatures might increase by 5 degrees even with aggressive strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and could increase by as much as 10 degrees if emissions continue unabated. The report also predicts increases in extreme weather caused by global warming will continue. It is time to apply the lessons of sustainable disaster mitigation and hazard resilience to respond to the challenges posed by global warming, identify and assess the options we have for addressing the crisis, and create a practical plan for managing the problem.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Peosta Library Circulation Stacks 363.738 Sch 2016 Checked In Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
