HOW TO CHANGE MINDS ABOUT OUR CHANGING CLIMATE: LET SCIENCE DO THE TALKING THE NEXT TIME SOMEONE TRIES TO TELL YOU
Book ID/图书代码: 08136014B70362
English Summary/英文概要: An essential climate-debate handbook
that puts the irrefutable science
supporting human-caused climate
change at your fingertips
Have you heard that global warming is simply the result of natural cycles? Or that scientists are split on whether humans are affecting the climate?
More important, do you have a firm grasp of the science that
emphatically refutes these claims? The evidence exists, and it’s long been decisive, but do you know your science well enough to have it at the ready the next time you’ve been put on the spot by a climatechange skeptic?
At last, this is the handbook to end the debate—here to prepare
you with not only science’s strongest arguments but also the best ways to deploy them to change skeptics’ minds. Seth Darling and Doug Sisterson, leading climate-change researchers and science communicators, dismantle all the most pernicious misconceptions with easy-to-understand explanations so that, once and for all, we can agree that climate change is a real and significant threat to our well-being, and then start to do something about it.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 一个重要的气候辩论手册让您随时可以提出关于人类引起的气候变化的无可辩驳的科学支持。
你是否听说过全球变暖仅仅是自然循环的结果?或者说,科学家们关于人类是否会影响气候产生了分歧?
更重要的是,你是否掌握了很有把握的科学能反驳这些说法? 该证据存在并且是决定性的,但是你是否知道你的科学是不是足够有力,让你在下一次因为对气候变化持怀疑态度而陷入窘境时能翻身?
最后,这本手册能够结束争论——在这里您准备的不仅仅是科学上最强的论点,还是将它们部署到变化怀疑论者心目中的最佳途径。塞斯•达林和道格是研究气候变化的领先人物和科学传播者,用易于理解的解释拆除所有最致命的误解,这样一劳永逸,我们都必须承认,气候变化是对我们幸福的真正和显著的威胁,然后我们要开始做一些事情。(LNL)
