Content:
Deniers of climate change sometimes quip that claims about global warming are more about political science than climate science. They are wrong on the science, but may be right with respect to its political implications. A hotter world, this book argues, will bring unprecedented migrations, famine, war, and disease. It will be a social and political disaster of the first order. This book takes climate change out of the realm of scientific abstraction to explore its real-world consequences
