Michael E. Mann Livres

The book presents a visually engaging examination of global warming, using graphics, illustrations, and charts to clarify complex climate issues. Authored by renowned climate scientists Michael E. Mann and Lee R. Kump, it addresses critical questions about climate change, drawing on the latest findings from the IPCC. By employing analogies and striking visuals, the authors aim to make the science accessible to both skeptics and experts. This updated edition serves as an essential resource for anyone looking to understand the realities of climate change and participate in the ongoing discussion about solutions.

For centuries, powerful forces of greed have tried to hide the truth, but that doesn't change reality - the earth is round and climate change is very real. The Madhouse Effect brilliantly dissects the climate denial industry, empowering all of us to see the facts and take action before it's too late. Leonardo DiCaprio

Shortlisted for the Financial Timesand McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award, and one of The Observer's 'Thirty books to help us understand the world'. Are we really to blame for the climate crisis? Over 70 per cent of global emissions come from the same 100 organisations, but fossil-fuel companies have taken no responsibility themselves. Instead, they have waged a 30-year campaign to blame individuals. The result has been disastrous for our planet. In The New Climate War, renowned scientist Michael E. Mann argues that all is not lost. He draws the battle lines between the people and the polluters -- fossil-fuel companies, right-wing plutocrats, and petro-states -- and outlines a plan for forcing our governments and corporations to wake up and make real change.

Approached by a variety of animals driven out of their homes by climate change, a young girl heads to the halls of power and throws a tantrum that just might save the world. Includes a science section explaining global warming, climate change, and the perils of environmental destruction

A world-leading expert exposes how fossil-fuel companies have waged a thirty-year campaign to blame individuals for climate change while taking no responsibility themselves, and offers guidance on what we must do now to reverse global warming. Recycle. Fly less. Eat less meat. These are some of the ways that we've been told we can save the planet. But are individuals really to blame for the climate crisis? Seventy-one per cent of global emissions come from the same 100 companies. Companies that have spent the last 30 years using clever marketing techniques to place the responsibility for reversing climate change on individuals, whose actions -- however well meaning -- simply won't be enough alone. The result has been disastrous for our planet. In The New Climate War, renowned scientist Michael E. Mann argues that all is not lost. He draws the battle lines between the people and the polluters -- fossil-fuel companies, right-wing plutocrats, and petro-states -- and outlines a plan for forcing our governments and corporations to wake up and make real change.

Rund 4,5 Milliarden Jahre hat die Erde bewiesen, dass sie bestens ohne Menschen zurechtkommt. Erst vor etwa 2 Millionen Jahren tauchten die ersten Urmenschen auf. Was hat unsere Existenz damals plötzlich möglich gemacht? Ironischerweise genau das, was uns jetzt bedroht: der Klimawandel. In der Vergangenheit begünstigten Klimaschwankungen die Weiterentwicklung und Ausbreitung unserer Vorfahren. So schuf zum Beispiel die Austrocknung der Tropen während des Pleistozäns eine Nische für frühe Hominiden, die in den neu erstandenen Savannen Beute jagen konnten. Und die plötzliche Abkühlung im Nordatlantik vor 13.000 Jahren förderte die Entwicklung der Landwirtschaft. Aber: Der Temperaturbereich, innerhalb derer Menschen existieren können, ist überraschend klein. »Zu kalt« und »zu warm« ist schnell erreicht. Unser Überleben hängt daher davon ab, dass wir diese Schwellen nicht überschreiten. In dieser spektakulären Wanderung durch die Erdgeschichte stellt der renommierte Klimaforscher Michael E. Mann unmissverständlich klar, wie fragil der Moment ist, in dem die Menschheit sich gerade befindet – und dass es sich lohnt, um die Zukunft zu kämpfen. Mit einem Vorwort des Meteorologen Özden Terli.
