Climate Change Science

Causes, Effects and Solutions for Global Warming

About this book

Climate Change Science: Causes, Effects and Solutions for Global Warming presents unbiased, state-of-the-art, scientific knowledge on climate change and engineering solutions for mitigation. The book expands on all major prospective solutions for tackling climate change in a complete manner. It comprehensively explains the variety of climate solutions currently available, including the remaining challenges associated with each. Effective, complementary solutions for engineering to combat climate change are discussed and elaborated on. Some of the more high-risk proposals are qualitatively and quantitatively compared and contrasted with low-risk mitigation actions to facilitate the formulation of feasible, environmentally-friendly solutions. The book provides academics, postgraduate students and other readers in the fields of environmental science, climate change, atmospheric sciences and engineering with the information they need for their roles. Through exploring the fundamental information currently available, exergy utilization, large-scale solutions, and current solutions in place, the book is an invaluable look into how climate change can be addressed from an engineering-perspective using scientific models and calculations. - Provides up-to-date, comprehensive research on the causes and effects of climate change ā€“ both manmade and natural - Explains the scientific data behind climate change from an interdisciplinary perspective - Describes the future effects of climate change and the necessity for immediate implementation - Presents environmentally-friendly solutions and critically analyzes benefits and drawbacks
