What is it about?
This collection from Annual Reviews includes 22 review articles on the politics and policy of climate change, the impact climate change is currently having on global populations, and the impact on aquatic ecosystems, from mangrove forests to permafrost and ice. While transformative changes are needed to safeguard our future, we can also learn from past scholarship on this topic. Four decades ago, Influences of Mankind on Climate by pioneering meteorological and atmospheric scientist William Kellogg (1917-2007) was published in volume 7 of the Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences. This collection highlights what researchers have learned about climate science since then.
