About this book
Climate change is beginning to affect our lives. This book charts the changes in startling detail - over the next ten years, within the next 50 and beyond. In 40 years' time the UK and Europe will be sweltering year after year in blazing summers which will relegate the current furore about water shortages to a footnote in history, and in just a few hundred years, all the world's coastal towns cities will be beneath the waves.
