Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - We are at war with Nature, It is increasingly on the offensive and prevailing. Since the early seventies, global warming driven evaporation has increased the moisture content of the atmosphere by more than 13%. To put that into perspective this is the equivalent of a decade of flow over Nia…gara Falls. The attendant energy of vaporization has increased by five times the average global consumption of energy. The consequences, the frequency of events of extreme weather has increased fivefold as their severity has trebled, claiming over two million lives, wreaking devastation in excess of $4 trillion, injuring, displacing or destroying livelihoods of a billion worldwide. Annual direct economic losses have skyrocketed by 1,300%, 125% for each 1% increase in the average global concentration of water vapor, now averaging $160 billion and accelerating at an exponential rate decade over decade. This is a global war in which we are suffering massive and growing losses. What goes completely unnoticed is that NOAA data show we can do far more than merely suffer and endure: we can fight back and reverse climate change. Through modest increases in precipitation, slightly reducing atmospheric moisture in the small region where El Niño events arise, we can reduce the devastation wreaked by catastrophic weather. Over time, a cumulative increase of roughly 6% in annual precipitation in this region can return the global concentration of water vapor, thus our climate, to that of the seventies. In this book, I set out a straightforward, complete, and accessible explication of climate change. The physical principles I introduce are not merely theoretical; I demonstrate that when applied, the temperature determinations are within at least 0.8% of the NOAA temperature record. Instead of tables, I explain this all with the aid of straightforward data based charts, supplemented by the relevant physics for readers who wish to perform their own calculations. However, this is not a textbook. It is written to be understood independently of the math, which readers are free to skip over. There is HOPE. All that we need to do is MAKE IT RAIN. a bit more over the Pacific and humankind can prevail.
