Global Warming, Natural Hazards, and Emergency Management 1st Edition

Maybe because is a more a historical account of what has been done locally, regional and nationwide to adapt to climate change. I don't think the authors wanted to compile scientific evidence, just what has been done recently to mitigate the immediate effects. After this winter's vortex, there is no doubt weather is cyclical.Personally I rather find a balance. Let's no go back to pollution practices, but let's be reasonable when it comes to allowing the economy to grow. The Keystone Pipe should be in place now or we are going to see more and more tragic train accidents transporting oil.Also, there is a typo on page 121. The Northridge Earthquake was in 1994, not 1995. I was there!

Needed it for class. Nothing earth shattering here.

Needed for school, fast shipping, not sure if it will be a fascinating read but we shall see.
