he No-Nonsense Guide to Climate Change provides much needed information that helps us learn about climate change and promote genuine solutions to the problem.
Each new scientific report on climate change makes increasingly alarming predictions about global warming. The threat is impossible to ignore. Or is it? Most governments have responded slowly, if at all, betraying an attitude of denial and a reluctance to instigate change.
This guide looks at the latest findings, explores the options and explains why carbon emissions trading and nuclear power are not the answer. It calls for determined measures to clean up our act, cut energy use, and improve energy efficiency.
