Books in 21st-Century Engineering Solutions for Climate Change series

"Earth's climate is changing, with new and frightening results. One of the most severe issues is the rise in sea levels. All over the world, island nations are disappearing, coastal areas are flooding, and habitats are washing away. This book explores the causes of global warming and how they are affecting plants, animals, and people all over the world. The text also explores possible solutions, from planting living shorelines to controlling the seas with walls and gates. What do rising sea levels mean for Earth? It's all here in this comprehensive look at a twenty-first-century problem."--Publisher's description.

As our world becomes more industrialized, with new developing countries, expanding factories, and a growing global population, changes are happening to the air we breathe. In fact, those changes have been taking place over the course of many decades. This book offers an in-depth study of the history of the problem, featuring fast facts on air pollution and solutions for how we might make our air cleaner, healthier, and more breathable for the future.
