Perhaps an insurmountable problem

Kudos to the Author Robert Strom, this is a book that would be of interest to anyone trying to get a grasp on the general health of the planet and where global climate change is taking us. He takes a very comprehensive look through all the scientific literature on global warming; the science paints a very bleak picture. The book is a bit dry at times but that is to be expected for this type of book, certainly that was not a detractor as the information is excellent. If you want hard information this is an excellent resource.
