Wallace S. Broecker and Robert Kunzig — Fixing Climate What Past Climate Changes Reveal About The Current Threat--And How To Counter It

Macmillan 2008 Hardback, 253pp. Wallace S. Broecker, a longtime researcher at Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, warned about the possible consequences of global warming decades before the concept entered popular consciousness. Hooked on climate studies since his student days, he has learned, largely through his own findings, that climate changes--naturally, dramatically, and rarely benignly. He also knows from experience that when mankind pushes nature as we are currently doing by dumping some sixty to seventy million metric tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every day, climate will change even more dramatically and less benignly. A. DJ. Some slight staining to page edges, otherwise good; previous owner's name partially rubbed out. (ISBN: 9780809045013). Good.
