Surviving Climate Change: The Struggle to Avert Global Catastrophe

摘要

This collection, co-published by the University of Southampton 'independent initiative' (founded by the two editors), combines dire warnings about the probable consequences of climate change with constructive advice about how to avert, even survive it. All the contributors work for British institutions and, excepting the long general position paper by South African-born Aubrey Meyer and two assessments of the Bush Administration's poor response to the 2003 'Pentagon Report' (on the implications of climate change for USA national security), the book is unabashedly written with current British policy, media reports and audiences in mind.
