Climate Change for Football Fans: A Matter of Life and Death
No Customer Reviews
Climate policy hits Turf Moor: race through an unconventional take on climate policy, while following Burnley's adventure in Europe and their roller-coaster struggle for survival in the Premier League.
An amusing and enlightening look at climate change and football, this book consists of a series of conversations between Joe, a Burnley lad who is football mad, and Professor Igor who's obsessed with climate change. Joe thinks that worrying about climate change is a waste of time. Igor can't understand why 22 grown men would put on shorts and run around after a ball. Igor agrees to spend a season with Joe going to every Burnley game, and in return Joe and his family listen to the Professor rattle on about climate policy. Written in earthy and irreverent language, Climate Change for Football Fans examines why preventing climate change is so difficult, and explains why it is more a social and political problem than a technological one, and how the need to change our lifestyle makes finding a solution so difficult. Notes at the back of the book summarise all the serious climate-change material so the reader can look up the important messages in the book without having to stand on the terraces. Accessible, informative and fun, Climate Change for Football Fans puts a refreshingly lighthearted spin on a complicated, serious and important issue.Format:Paperback
