One of Prince Charles’ virtues (he has many in my opinion –
for which he gets scant appreciation at home and abroad) is his consistent
public commitment to addressing climate change. Within the limits imposed on him by his royal position, he
has been a strong voice for action.
His latest initiative is a book for popular audiences, entitled simply Climate Change (may still be difficult
to find in the US).
The book (co-authored with two climate scientists) is a
simple, well-illustrated introduction to the topic. In fact, it looks
like a children’s book, but isn’t.
(The publishing genealogy of these “Ladybird Expert” books can be found
here. The next book in the series
is on quantum mechanics!)
I’m not sure what impact this little book will have in the
UK, let alone this country, but folks who work on climate change communications
issues should definitely give it a look.
Maybe Scott Pruitt should read it!
