Introduction
Abstract
This introductory chapter describes the reality of climate change and its causes. It begins with a personal account of experiences, progresses to a societal perspective, and ends with a technical appraisal of the phenomenon. Experts characterize climate change by weather extremes, uncertainties and variabilities. The authors express their difficulty in appreciating the arguments of climate change deniers when their experience of the world constantly reminds them of these realities on a month-to-month, week-to-week, or even day-to-day basis. The authors give a non-technical description of the causes of climate change and argue for the anthropogenic view that it is caused by man, citing findings of the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change. They reiterate the assertion that climate change is both inevitable and irreversible.
