520    Schmidt, a climate scientist at NASA, and photographer 
       Wolfe seek to advance public education about human-induced
       climate change in a combination of arresting images and 
       lucid explanations of the science of global warming and 
       the pursuit of global cooperation in adopting new, 
       sustainable ways of living. With contributions by 16 
       scientists, engineers, writers, activists, and 
       photographers, Schmidt and Wolfe address a host of 
       observable changes, from the melting of ice and permafrost
       at the poles to the rising of sea levels in cities such as
       Venice and Miami...-- Excerpt, Booklist.
