The No Logo of climate change -- a book that shows how global warming is not a theory we should still debate, but something that has already happened on a global scale. Climate change is not a concern for the future. It`s happening right now. In this book -- based on the latest scientific evidence -- the author takes us around the world to show the impact of global warming already being felt in people`s lives. From s&-buried houses in China to thawing Alaskan plains, the author witnesses some of the worst effects of climate change at first h&. Some, like the floods in the UK, are near home. Others -- like the drowning Pacific island of Tuvalu -- are a world away from the exhaust pipes & factory chimneys that are actually causing global warming. But this isn`t simply an inventory of disaster, it`s a wry look at how people around the globe are coping as their world changes at unprecedented speed. In the process, the author eats whale blubber in Alaska, swims in shark-infested waters off the Great Barrier Reef & struggles to the top of Andean peaks in Peru. An adventure with a conscience & an argument with an urgent purpose, High Tide is an extremely important book. ...
