“'Global Warning' explains with perfect clarity and simplicity the dangers we face while maintaining the truth of the science. Paul Brown's greatest achievement in this book is that it restores hope by teaching us of the technologies and renewable energy solutions that are available to us. There is no time for skepticism: we have to act urgently. We DO have a 'Last chance for change'!”

Open any newspaper, watch the television news, listen to the radio – every day there is something on climate change. Extremes of weather already touch many aspects of people’s lives. As the global temperature increases, its consequences will become ever more significant and affect every corner of the planet.

‘Global Warning: The Last Chance for Change’ is an authoritative and visually stunning book, unique in its approach. While most of the current literature on the subject is highly scientific, this book’s aim is to educate the public at large. Hard-hitting text, graphics and powerful pictures show the plight the world is already facing. The tone is serious, but ultimately positive, outlining what we all need to do to safeguard our future. It provides an honest appraisal of a critical situation, and some practical advice about solutions – whether making small adjustments in everyday life, or raising public awareness across the globe.

This book serves as an invaluable tool to inform business leaders and the public alike of the consequences and opportunities associated with the ongoing increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide, and the repercussions of continuing “business as usual”. It will be clear about the problems which we face, but positive about the possibilities of averting the worst. This book conveys the following key messages to our target audience – the general public.

1. The science is clear and we can understand it

2. A reduction of emissions is achievable and affordable

3. Now is the opportunity for us all to make a difference
