It is a potent "greenhouse gas" that warms the earth; controls the oxidizing capacity of the atmosphere (OH) indirectly affecting the cycles and abundances of many atmospheric trace gases; provides water vapor to the stratosphere; scavenges chlorine atoms from the stratosphere, terminating the catalytic ozone destruction by chlorine atoms, including the chlorine released from the man-made chlorofluorocarbons; produces ozone, CO, and CO2 in the troposphere; and it is an index of life on earth and so is present in greater quantities during warm interglacial epochs and dwindles to low levels during the cold of ice ages. By all measures, methane is the second only to CO2 in causing future global warming. The book presents a comprehensive account of the current understanding of atmospheric methane, and it is an end point for summarizing more than a decade of intensive research on the global sources, sinks, concentrations, and environmental role of methane.".

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In our time, the global population has become large enough to cause perceptible environmental changes all over the world. With it, a new science of global change has emerged, mostly as a practical matter to understand and manage the earths habitability and create a sustainable environment for some time to come one which balances the benefits of technological and societal advances with their potential, less desirable side effects. These concerns began with the depletion of the ozone layer and its possible adverse consequences on human health, and have, in recent decades, shifted to climate change driven by ongoing global warming. Why are these global changes occurring? How will they affect our lives? If we find the effects undesirable, what should we do? This book will attempt to answer these questions. It will show how to accomplish the goal of managing our climate, what it will take, and when it needs to be done. Such a management process has to be dynamic, making it more complex and less didactic, requiring changes in strategy to achieve a longer-term goal as our knowledge advances. Global Climate Change and Human Life is a comprehensive and cohesive look at the emerging field of global change science. Using models that take the theoretical or conceptual understanding and translate them into mathematical forms, the book lays out a holistic view of the science that develops and teaches the main principles, concepts and conclusions. In the end, readers will be empowered to use science and the scientific method to decide how important and timely climate change is as a social issue and which solutions can succeed. How warm will the Earth become and when? What effect will it have on human life? This book answers some of these questions, providing facts and theories that will help you to formulate rational opinions and gain a new way to think about the complexities of the subject and the future of the global environment and climate.

Abu-Abdo, Khalil; Malik, Zafar Abas (illustratore). Much has changed in London from Victorian times, but some features have also remained the same: the hustle and bustle, the greenery of its tree-lined parks and squares, the cosmopolitanism with opportunities for friendship and collaboration. There has likewise been an enduring Muslim presence, with individuals of courage and organising ability who have taken up causes, founded institutions for the public good, and inspired others to similar service. This was often against the tide of British colonial policies in days of Empire, but they persisted in the face of surveillance and upper class snobbery. Friendships in the Square is a collection of biographical essays interleaved with institutional histories of networks and associations. There are accounts of human foibles and heroic endeavours, of support from Englishmen of goodwill, of organisational collaborations and dissensions, and cloak-and-dagger episodes in which sometimes fact is stranger than fiction. The Muslim story is embedded within London's story. "Written in an engagingly readable style the monograph shares the rich life stories of a number of historically significant Muslims in London in a captivating narrative. What is distinctive about it is that moving away from orthodox narratives, it exposes a differently contoured landscape, drawing attention to the significance of the many networks and connections that Muslims themselves established on British soil, delivering portraits of the many rich encounters and exchanges between Muslims and other Britons in the UK and the contributions made by them. Time and again, we see their actions directly subverting widespread contemporary assumptions and images of Muslims' passivity and inferiority. Given the debates and controversies surrounding Islam and Muslims globally, but more particularly in the West, this work will undoubtedly be of great interest and relevance not only to scholars and students but also to socially, culturally, and politically aware lay audiences." -Professor Humayun Ansari OBE, Emeritus Professor of the History of Islam and Cultural Diversity, History Department, Royal Holloway, University of London. "Another excellently researched book by M.A. Sherif. It not only chronicles the efforts of Muslim activists in Britain from the 1880s onwards but also doubles as a unique tourist guide to lost Muslim heritage buildings and sites across London. A must-have for anyone wishing to explore the rich and often overlooked Muslim heritage of London and Britain.".
