The Cartoon Introduction to Climate Change, Revised Edition

01 When The Cartoon Introduction to Climate Change was first

02 published in 2014, it offered something entirely new: a fun, illustrated

03 guide to a planetary crisis. If that sounds like an oxymoron, you've never

04 seen the carbon cycle demonstrated through yoga poses or a polar bear

05 explaining evolution to her cubs.

06 That creativity comes from the minds of Yoram Bauman, the

07 world's first and only "stand-up economist," and award-winning illustrator

08 Grady Klein. After seeing their book used in classrooms and the halls of

09 Congress alike, the pair has teamed up again to fully update the guide

10 with the latest scientific data from the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on

11 Climate Change).

12 A lot has happened to the climate over the last decade, and the

13 authors tackle the daunting statistics with their trademark humor. They

14 realize it's better to laugh than cry when confronting mind-blowing facts

15 about our changing world. Readers will become familiar with critical

16 concepts, but they'll also smile as they learn about climate science,

17 projections, and policy.

18 Sociologists have argued that we don't address climate change

19 because it's too big and frightening to get our heads around. The

20 Cartoon Introduction to Climate Change takes the intimidation and

21 gloom out of one of the most important challenges of our time.
