Fifteen
shades of climate... the fall of the weather dice and the butterfly effect. The following are extracts from pages 72-74.
Time magazine cover dated April 3, 2006, with the headline “
Be worried. Be very worried.”, explored various aspects of the Earth’s climate including using the phrase “Earth at the Tipping Point”.
