The scientific consensus is clear: climate change is real, it is human-caused, and it poses an existential threat to our planet and its inhabitants. The evidence is overwhelming, ranging from rising global temperatures and melting ice caps to increasingly frequent and intense extreme weather events. The impacts are already being felt worldwide, from devastating wildfires and prolonged droughts to rising sea levels and widespread biodiversity loss. This book is not simply another account of the scientific facts; rather, it seeks to bridge the gap between scientific understanding and public action, translating complex data into accessible narratives that empower readers to engage in the urgent work of climate change mitigation and adaptation.
