It is the starkest form of intergenerational injustice: the generations that did least to cause the crisis are the ones who will inherit its harshest consequences. We talk about climate change constantly—but how much do we really understand? If the climate has always changed, why should this change alarm us? What will the world look like when today's children grow up?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e52 Questions to Understand Climate Change answers the questions that matter, one at a time, in plain language and grounded in the best available science. It moves from the mechanics of the climate system—greenhouse gases, climate models, ocean acidification, melting ice, rising seas, extreme weather, the spread of disease and the tipping points we may not be able to undo—to the human forces that shape it: our lifestyles, climate anxiety and climate justice, the role of education, political polarization, outright denialism and the influence of capitalism itself. Each short chapter takes a single question and gives a clear, evidence-based answer—cutting through the noise, the myths and the deliberate disinformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a book for the curious and the concerned, for the worried and even for the skeptical. It does not preach and it does not sugar-coat: it hands you the data, explains what it means, and shows why understanding climate change is the first step toward doing something about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause climate change does not care whether we believe in it—it is happening anyway. What can still change is us. And the future our grandchildren inherit depends on the questions we are willing to ask today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDavid García-García holds a degree in mathematics from the University of Valencia and a PhD in space geodesy, and has taught at the University of Alicante, Spain, since 2003. His research focuses on the study of the Earth using satellite data and climate models, and in recent years has centred on the water cycle. In 2012, realising that scientific knowledge about climate change was not reaching his friends and family, he began communicating science on the subject. The amount of contradictory information circulating about it led him to write this book, intended to offer a clear picture grounded in scientific evidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlexandra Rey Cubero holds a degree in Chemistry from the Autonomous University of Madrid and a PhD in Environmental Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, and is a lecturer at the University of Alicante, Spain, since 2018, where she trains future preschool and primary teachers, as well as secondary teachers, in science education. The combination of her scientific background, the urgency of the climate crisis and her daily contact with teachers led her to join this book, intended for anyone seeking an educational perspective on climate change grounded in scientific evidence, at a time when it is not always easy to tell which information is reliable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 February 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Nature Switzerland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783032405760\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53984771113100,"sku":"9783032405760","price":34.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783032405760","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
