Description
Unlike most books on climate change, this one examines the current trends in climate—and predictions for
the future—relative to similar events in Earth’s history. This history paints a picture of repeated cataclysms
in which most life on Earth was lost. However, our planet now hosts a species potentially capable of
mitigating, regulating, and/or moderating the factors affecting global climate. According to widely
accepted data, we have a narrowing window of time to make the necessary changes before we become just
another name on a long list of species wiped out through climate catastrophes. Trexler, a paleontologist
in Montana, makes powerful and specific suggestions for how the challenges facing our planet can be
lessened or avoided.
n A concise explanation in simple terms as to how Earth’s climate is regulated
n The first book to explain past, present, and future climate to the average person
n Heavily illustrated and carefully documented
n The first book to take a hard look at our future as predicted by well-documented past events
n A fresh approach—one not driven by economic or political concerns
n A message that can’t wait; people must know now what their children and grandchildren face
