Kerry Emanuel

This is a short, cutesy book that lays out the facts of climate change as of 2007. I don't really like the bottom line that the only way we can fix the system is through political (and of course, scientific) channels. There is no further analysis into why the political system is too flawed to fix the problems of climate change, and to be honest I didn't expect it from such a small book. But I really hate it when books like this tell people that they can help save the world by driving 30 miles less per month, buying new CF bulbs, or buying a Prius and throwing away their old clunker. Clearly, if things were that easy, this planet should have no problems with global warming.… (altro)
