Global Warming - N. McBride

This book concentrates on one aspect of the Earth - global warming, and how this affects (and is affected by) the atmosphere, the surface (and the near subsurface) of the Earth, and the life that inhabits the planet. It begins with an overview of global warming then proceeds to consider the science in more detail, starting with the observations that tell us global warming is occurring, what affects the Earth's temperature to enable us to understand how global warming can occur. Also examined is the crucial role of the atmosphere, water and carbon in global warming and how the future global temperature can be protected.
