For Dummies series tackles climate change

"Readers may be scared by information about the effects of climate change, like melting permafrost, disappearing glaciers, rising seas, the spread of pests and diseases, eradication of species, and declining sources of food and drinkable water, but the book also offers solutions and hope for the future", Ms. May said. [Hmm. Who wrote this thing...?]

Both authors are globally recognised environmental activists. Ms. May, currently federal Green Party leader, was executive director of the Sierra Club of Canada for 17 years and policy adviser to former prime minister Brian Mulroney. Ms. Caron’s pedigree includes membership in the Canadian Youth Climate Change Coalition and the board of directors of the Sierra Club of Canada

[stop laughing {or crying} it's ok because...]

The book was fact-checked by scientists from the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a 2,000-member body that has created an objective source* of climate information.

[BTW: about that 'objective source' crack - for the record, the IPCC's charter is:

"The IPCC was established to provide the decision-makers and others interested in climate change with an objective source of information about climate change. The IPCC does not conduct any research nor does it monitor climate related data or parameters. Its role is to assess on a comprehensive, objective, open and transparent basis the latest scientific, technical and socio-economic literature produced worldwide relevant to the understanding of the risk of human-induced climate change"

I.e., it assume AGW as fact and exists only to enact policies to 'counter' it. Can't get much more 'objective' than that.]
