Publisher's Synopsis

Hurricanes and storms strike New Orleans and Mumbai; flooding causes devastation in England and Mozambique; droughts occur in Australia and Darfur...

Further substantial climate change is unavoidable and the risks to the natural world, the economy and our everyday lives are immense.

Here Lord Stern, a world leading authority on climate change, confronts urgent questions: What are the dangers? How can the world adapt? And what does this mean for us all?

The solutions he gives are provocative, authoritative and inspirational - a blueprint for the future.
