| adam_text | Let s assume we do nothing about climate change. Imag¬
ine that we just continue to emit carbon at our current lev¬
els or even exceed those levels. How would our weather
change? What would our forecast be? Welcome to The
Weather of the Future.
In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Heidi Cullen, one of
the world s foremost climatologists and environmental
journalists, puts a vivid face on climate change, offering a
new way of seeing this phenomenon not just as an event
set to happen in the distant future but as something hap¬
pening right now in our own backyards. Arguing that we
must connect the weather of today with the climate change
of tomorrow, Cullen combines the latest research from sci¬
entists on the ground with state-of-the-art climate-model
projections to create climate-change scenarios for seven
of the most at-risk locations around the world.
From the Central Valley of California, where coming
droughts will jeopardize the entire state s water supply, to
Greenland, where warmer temperatures will give access
to mineral wealth buried beneath ice sheets for millennia,
Cullen illustrates how, if left unabated, climate change will
transform every corner of the world by midcentury. What
emerges is a mosaic of changing weather patterns that
collectively spell out the range of risks posed by global
warming—whether it s New York City, whose infrastruc¬
ture is extremely vulnerable to even a relatively weak cat¬
egory
3
hurricane, or Bangladesh, a country so low-lying
that millions of people could become climate refugees due
to rising sea levels.
Provocative and convincing, The Weather of the Fu¬
ture makes climate change local, showing how no two re¬
gions of the country or the world will be affected in quite
the same way, and demonstrating that melting ice is just
the beginning.
