La fisica del cambiamento climatico

When I write this review, it's Horror Week at Goodreads. This is quite appropriate because the contents of this book are quite horrifying if you care about the future of the planet we all inhabit. Mr Krauss is not preaching to us, he's presenting the facts and then drawing conclusions from those fac Leggi tutto

Nothing really new, but it's a clear, up-to-date summary and a starting point on a climate change discussion. It's scientific enough but well explained in human language as long as you're good with basics. Also, it's dense with graphs and charts, so if you're getting an audio version, get ready to sp Leggi tutto

Krause insider knowledge of a physicist elucidates on the factors that influence global warming. All in all a very useful book to understand the physical underpinnings of how temperature is controlled by the our planet.

An interesting book to read to learn about the physics behind global warming. It combines a historical look at the science behind global warming with the physics and evidence for it. In closing, the book does not mince words and shows that the world is already changing, and we had better adapt to a

Представете си земи, на които живеят близо 1 млрд. души, да станат несъвместими с живота до 100 години. Вашите деца и хората от бъдещето вероятно няма да имат нужда от въображение. Те може да го видят с очите си, ако продължим, както обикновено, да даваме път на комфортното невежество и пожелателнот Leggi tutto

A sobering read focussing on the MEKONG DELTA "The Mekong has the richest density of freshwater fish in the world and is home to what is estimated to be over one thousand species of fish" Just let that sink in for a moment. The Mekong supports over fourteen million people along its length. The Mekong Leggi tutto

For the less-technically advanced reader (I raise my hand!!), there are discontinuities in the reading of this fine book, where one has to put it down and study selected topics more deeply. As a result, I took several weeks to navigate its 170 odd pages. On finishing the book, I am pleased with my d Leggi tutto

A waste of money There’s nothing in this book that isn’t available for free in a hundred places. It’s just a rehash of the same climate change narrative that we’ve been hearing about for years. I was hoping for some proofs or equations or other logical demonstrations of how climate predictions were d Leggi tutto

There are people who don't think climate change is a real thing and we are going to witness the consequences. The book provides us with necessary data bout climate change and the physics behind it. I hope this book helps such people.
