El Nino, the collapse of the Gulf Stream, devastating*
hurricanes and floods many natural disasters
have been linked, in recent years, to global warming

a natural cycle or have we really reached the limits

The author addresses issues such as deforestation
and environmental pollution, explaining how they are
causing widespread damage beyond their places of
origin. He creates awareness of the risks associated t
with certain modern industrial and agricultural
practices, and suggests alternatives that might allow I
the Earth to regain its natural equilibrium.
The Breakdown of Climate gives a clear overall
picture of climate, from its origins to the present day, I
comparing the cause and effects of evolutionary
changes with human influences. It explains how
weather systems function, and how oceanic currents
and tropical forests are vital in maintaining these
processes. The author describes how natural systems
perpetuate themselves, and are essential to our
planet as a whole.
In the midst of a seemingly hopeless scenario
The Breakdown of Climate offers hope to all those
genuinely concerned about the increased violence
and occurrence of natural disasters.
