- What Is Climate Change? by Gail Herman
What Is Climate Change? by Gail Herman
Paperback
Ages 8-12
Which of these facts are true?
Earth’s climate has been getting warmer
Greenhouse gases are the cause of the change in climate
Our planet is experiencing record floods, droughts, and storms
Learn more about what climate change means and how it’s affecting our planet.
The earth is definitely getting warmer. There’s no argument about that, but who or what is the cause? And why has climate change become a political issue? Are humans at fault? Is this just a natural development? While the vast majority of scientists who study the environment agree that humans play a large part in climate change, there is a counterargument. Author Gail Herman presents both sides of the debate in this fact-based, fair-minded, and well-researched book that looks at the subject from many perspectives, including scientific, social, and political.
