Climate Change and Mitigation
At this point, there is little doubt that climate change has occurred as the result of human activity--over 97 percent of scientific experts agree that this is the case. However, there is debate about the best way to deal with climate change now that its impacts are becoming apparent through issues such as extreme weather and a loss of habitable land. One potential approach is through mitigating climate change, which involves reducing greenhouse gas emissions and stabilizing their levels in the atmosphere. While many support this approach, questions exist about how effective this plan will be at reducing or even reversing the impacts of climate change and who should be responsible for paying for and implementing these efforts. This title examines these pressing questions from a range of perspectives, including those of scientists and experts in global finance and politics.

Gal獺pagos
A poetic introduction to a distinctive island ecosystem that is home to many species found nowhere else on Earth. Using the same poetry/science note format as Serengeti, Gal獺pagos tells the complex story of a young volcanic ecosystem influenced by seasonal ocean currents, where food energy moves through integrated land and sea communities, each in its own season of growth and renewal. Millions of years ago, undersea volcanos in the eastern Pacific Ocean erupted, spewing up lava, rocks, and ash that eventually formed a cluster of islands: the archipelago known as the Gal獺pagos Islands. Over time, castaway plants and animals from hundreds of miles away arrived on the rocky shores and adapted to each island's changing volcanic landscape and seasonal weather variations. In these isolated locations constantly affected by shifting winds and swift ocean currents, much of the wildlife evolved into species found nowhere else on Earth. Some of the many distinctive organisms featured include giant daisy trees, Gal獺pagos penguins, marine iguanas, blue footed boobies, and Gal獺pagos giant tortoises. The well-researched back matter includes poetry notes, a glossary, resources, and a list of the species from this remarkable ecosystem that are highlighted in the book.
