Názov/Title: The impacts of climate change: An appraisal for the future

Oblasť/ Subject: Environmental Policy

Rok vydania, vydavateľ/Published in & by: 2006, International Policy Press, London

Abstrakt/Abstract: The present and future impacts of climate change have sometimes been exaggerated to the public and invoked as a justification for policies to mitigate humanity’s influence on the earth’s climate.

What is the historical and current scientific evidence for these impacts, and their causes? Are we experiencing these impacts now and if so, is it due to human-induced climate change? What does the future really hold for humanity and the planet?

A critical evaluation of potential climate impacts by economists and scientists, The impacts of climate change: An appraisal for the future offers answers to these and other questions.
