Paperback. Condition: Good. 304 pages. Cover worn and delaminatingIn Storms of My Grandchildren, Dr. James Hansen, the world's leading scientis t on climate issues, speaks out for the first time with the full truth about glo bal warming- the planet is hurtling even more rapidly than previously acknowledg ed to a climatic point of no return. Although Hansen was Al Gore's science advis or for An Inconvenient Truth, his recent data shows that our situation is even m ore dire today. But politicians haven't made the connection between the policy a nd the science. He shows why Gore's solution won't work, why we must phase out a ll coal, and why 350 ppm of carbon is a goal we must achieve in the next two dec ades if our grandchildren are to avoid global meltdown. This urgent manifesto bu cks conventional wisdom (including the Kyoto Protocol) and is sure to stir contr oversy, but Hansen - whose climate predictions have come to pass again and again , beginning in the 1980s when he first warned Congress about global warming - is the single most credible voice on the subject worldwide, and this book is sure to receive enormous attention. Hansen paints a devastating but all-too-realistic picture of what will happen in the next year, and ten years from now if we foll ow the course we're on. But he is also an optimist, showing that there is still time to do what we need to do. Urgent, strong action is needed, and this book, r eleased just before the Copenhagen Conference in December 2009, will be key in s etting the agenda going forward to create a groundswell, a tipping point, to sav e humanity - and our grandchildren - from a dire fate more imminent than we had supposed.…
