The author expresses the certainty that climate change exists and moves on to other questions: Will plants and animals survive? How will human health be affected? What will extreme weather mean for Earth? What can halt or control climate change? Color photos and occasional "Viewpoint" sections add interest to the dense prose and dull, textbook-like layout.
