Free Download 30-Second Climate: The 50 most topical events, measures and conditions, each explained in half a minute by Joanna D Haigh

Weather and climate are not the same. Weather is what occurs outdoors on a daily basis and is unpredictable from one week to the next, whereas climate follows a stable pattern that is developed over centuries. The planet is divided into climate zones-tropical, temperate and polar-based on temperature differences with distance from the equator where the sun is most intense and temperature affects humidity, precipitation, cloudiness and wind. To understand what drives our climate, scientists study the atmosphere, the oceans, biosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere. 30-Second Climate is an immediately accessible guide to the 50 key factors affecting Earth's climate, past, present and future, each explained in half a minute. From atmospheric circulation to zero carbon, this is the quickest way to know your planet.

Free Download David Macfarlane, "Climate Sense: A Layman's Guide to Climate Change"
English | 2019 | ISBN: 179445277X | EPUB | pages: 199 | 0.2 mb
Climate Sense takes readers on a fascinating journey, digging deep to explore the philosophy, psychology, politics, and science behind the modern 'environmental' movement of climate change. Explained in an easy-to-read entertaining style, the conclusion may surprise many, but it challenges the reader to become better informed and think deeply about this vitally important and increasingly controversial issue. Reviewed by American atmospheric physicist Dr Richard Lindzen (lead author of the IPCC's Third Assessment Report on climate change), who wrote: "I loved your book. You seem to have successfully avoided the technical issues that befuddle non-scientists and have relied on logic and common sense (that also, alas, befuddle part of our elite, but are nonetheless more accessible to those with somewhat open minds)."

Cities have taken a leading role in efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As federal and state climate policy waxes and wanes, many of the largest U.S. cities have pledged themselves to ambitious sustainability goals, as have smaller communities across the country. City-level policy makers, facing a range of political constraints, a thicket of federal and state laws, and varying degrees of municipal authority, need to figure out how to meet their climate commitments.

The effects of climate change are beginning to be felt around the world with rising temperatures, changing precipitation levels, more frequent and severe storms and longer more intensive droughts threatening human life and livelihoods and damaging property and infrastructure. As such, society in all countries - both developing and developed - need to increase their resilience to the impacts of climate change, where resilience is the ability of a system to absorb stresses and adapt in ways that improve the overall sustainability of the system; enabling it to be better prepared for future climate change impacts.
