Description
The vast majority of scientists agree that global warming is real and caused by our own actions. Growing concentrations of heat-trapping greenhouse gases in our atmosphere have already caused changes. Glaciers are melting, plants and animals are forced from their habitats, “tropical' diseases like malaria are spreading to higher altitudes, and the number of severe storms and droughts is increasing.

Reviews:
-"As the largest contributor to global warming, America must step up its efforts to decrease the damage to the environment. This will continue as one of the hottest issues (pun intended) on our planet for the next century. One of the first steps we can take in our libraries will be the provision of information. And to our rescue, Greenwood nobly enters with this Encyclopedia. With 300+ entries under the leadership of a renowned researcher, Bruce E. Johansen presents a complete resource including a substantial bibliography. This reference title provides something for everyone, from the curious to the dedicated scholar, and should be in all public, high school, and academic libraries." —Further Developments, Ingram Library Services
-". . . a timely and essential addition to both academic and community library Environmental Studies reference book collections. A fully updated body of work, Professor Johansen's exhaustive compendium organizes the informed and informative text under 300 headings and covers an impressive range of global warming related topics, concepts, issues, processes and scientists. . . . the text is as 'reader friendly' as it is up-to-date. . . . The Encyclopedia Of Global Warming Science And Technology is highly recommended as a contemporary informational resource for both academia and non-specialist general readers with an interest in Global Warming issues." —Midwest Book Review - Wisconsin Bookwatch
