Global warming is among the most urgent problems facing the world today.

John Grainger takes a longer view and draws on the archaeological evidence to show how our ancestors faced up to the ending of the last Ice Age.
Climate change is the greatest challenge to humankind today. Writer, scholar and broadcaster Alastair McIntosh sums up the present knowledge and shows that conventional solutions are not enough. In rejecting the blind alleys of climate change denial, exaggeration and false optimism, he offers a scintillating discussion of ways forward.
An impassioned plea to parents, grandparents and all who care about our planet to act now in creating a world where children come first; to take immediate action on climate change or bequeath a stark legacy to future generations.
