Hubris: The Troubling Science, Economics, and Politics of Climate
ISBN: 9780994903808 / Angielski / Miękka / 616 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores problems and issues that have emerged in national and international discussion of policies to address climate change. It concludes that every solution put forward by the UN and activists poses more problems than might ever emerge from the marginal human impact on natural climate change.
