Summary:
"The authors of this work examine 35 specific claims that have been made about global
climate
change
by believers and skeptics. These assertions, some true, some false, will guide readers to a much deeper understanding of the extent of
climate
change
; whether any
climate
change
that is taking place is human-caused; whether
climate
change
is likely to be a serious problem in the future; whether scientists agree on the fundamentals of
climate
change
; and whether
climate
change
impacts can be mitigated. Examples of specific issues that are scrutinized and explained in the book include: trends in the extent and condition of Arctic and Antarctic Sea ice packs, the accuracy of
climate
forecasting models, whether extreme weather events are increasing as a result of
climate
change
, and the benefits and drawbacks of various schemes to limit greenhouse gas emissions"--Publishers website.
