wanted to objectively report what I know: the facts about today's climate issues.\u003cbr\u003e Second, I wanted to give some idea of ​​what it's like to study climate science in a world that's falling apart uncontrollably.\u003cbr\u003e Third, I wanted to convey the incredibly complex emotions I feel as a scientist and as a human being about climate issues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- From the \"Introductory Note\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We still know only a part of the infinite truth. \u003cbr\u003eNo scientist can accurately predict the future of the Earth.\u003cbr\u003e Because we don't yet fully understand the physical laws of this complex world.\u003cbr\u003e I know how land, ice, water, and air move independently, but I don't know all the ways they interact.\u003cbr\u003e We also have no idea how humans will behave alone or in groups.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 1: Wonders\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In fact, Eunice Foote was completely forgotten until 2011.\u003cbr\u003e Then, a researcher happened to read the record of Henry's presentation and realized the importance of the research.\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 2 Anger\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Current scientific evidence does not allow us to conclude that human activities have had a significant impact on the global climate,” said Lee Raymond, CEO of global oil company ExxonMobil, in 1997.\u003cbr\u003e He wrote this three years later, in 2000: \u003cbr\u003e“Current science cannot confirm that fossil fuel use causes significant global warming.” But that was a lie, and he knew it.\u003cbr\u003e Because about a decade after the oceanographers published their findings, and the increasing variability of the Keeling curve was accepted as fact, another research team proved that the excess carbon dioxide causing global warming actually comes from fossil fuels.\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 2 Anger\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Extreme weather events are occurring with surprising frequency.\u003cbr\u003e Record heat waves, devastating floods, and persistent droughts – these are unprecedented times.\u003cbr\u003e But there are some things that don't change.\u003cbr\u003e The choice is always made by the rich, and the price is always paid by the poor.\u003cbr\u003e Those who suffer most from climate change are those least responsible.\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 3 Guilt\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhether a heavy rain turns into a flood largely depends on what kind of land it is on.\u003cbr\u003e Rain pouring down on pavement or asphalt lands differently than rain falling on a garden or beach.\u003cbr\u003e As you might expect, areas with more green space tend to have higher proportions of wealthy and white residents.\u003cbr\u003e Flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey was disproportionately concentrated in Spanish-speaking areas of Houston.\u003cbr\u003e It is not the rain that discriminates, it is the state that discriminates.\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 4: Fear\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The brutal truth we've learned from studying Earth's past is that we will outlive those we love.\u003cbr\u003e Nothing lasts forever.\u003cbr\u003e I know too.\u003cbr\u003e It's a well-known fact.\u003cbr\u003e But I desperately hoped that my beloved California would stay longer than I did.\u003cbr\u003e But now we are losing California. \u003cbr\u003eThe redwood forests, the coast, the perfect carefree summer, the blue skies, the clear air, the sun-drenched forests—all are engulfed in flames.\u003cbr\u003e I have already confirmed all of those predictions with science that shows a clear future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 5: Mourning\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, the climate changes shown by various climate models are not actually fundamentally different.\u003cbr\u003e All models show that the Earth is warming and will continue to warm unless greenhouse gas emissions are reduced to zero.\u003cbr\u003e It also shows that the risk of drought will increase, rainfall will become more extreme, and sea levels will rise.\u003cbr\u003e However, some models predict that doubling the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would lead to a temperature rise of about 2 degrees Celsius, while others predict a figure that is twice that high. \u003cbr\u003eThese differences persist over time and as climate model performance improves.\u003cbr\u003e However, we have made some progress in narrowing this range, and estimate climate sensitivity to be between 2.3 and 4.7 degrees Celsius.\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 6 Surprise\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Now, many more people are involved in the arduous task of turning the climate around.\u003cbr\u003e It's rare for something they do to look immediately exciting on the surface.\u003cbr\u003e But every electrician who fixes your home's wiring, every accountant who helps you qualify for clean energy tax credits, every engineer researching low-carbon cement or battery efficiency is part of the army that's saving the world.\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 7 Pride\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As many have pointed out, no one is coming to save us. \u003cbr\u003eIf we are saved in the end, it will be thanks to the collective effort of countless people, each with their own flaws and limitations, all doing their best.\u003cbr\u003e Although none of the past examples of successful environmental conservation perfectly align with our current situation, these stories still offer hope.\u003cbr\u003e These stories teach us that we must create the world we want to live in ourselves.\u003cbr\u003e Science sets limits.\u003cbr\u003e We write stories.\u003cbr\u003e There may be hope in that story.\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Chapter 8: Hope\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Then, as I thought about my children, my parents, my husband, and my friends, a mixture of grief, fear, anger, hope, and sadness came over me.\u003cbr\u003e I loved them, and I loved this world.\u003cbr\u003e And I felt completely happy to be

former NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies researcher who studied astronomy, theoretical physics, and climatology, is one of today's most prominent climate scientists and science communicators.

climate crisis and participated in the publication of the U.S. government report, the Fifth National Climate Assessment.\u003cbr\u003e This book is his first popular science book.\u003cbr\u003e What drives this scientist, a man of science to the core, mad? The answer lies in Chapter 2, \"Anger,\" of this book.\u003cbr\u003e It chronicles the struggles of scientists who have warned of the climate crisis since the 19th century, the politicians who ignored their warnings and missed opportunities to alleviate the problem, and the history of corporations that have persistently and subtly spread climate change denial.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In 1856, American physicist Joseph Henry stood at the podium of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and argued that carbon dioxide was raising the temperature of the atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003e His proof experiment was simple. \u003cbr\u003eWhen a glass bottle containing carbon dioxide and a glass bottle containing hydrogen or normal air were placed in the sun, the temperature of the glass bottle containing carbon dioxide increased compared to the other bottles.\u003cbr\u003e However, his paper, \"Factors Affecting the Temperature of Sunlight,\" based on this experiment, did not receive much attention (it should also be noted that the actual author of the paper was a forgotten female scientist named Eunice Putra).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There was another opportunity.\u003cbr\u003e Let's go to the US Congress in 1988.\u003cbr\u003e Meteorologist Shukuro Manabe, who would later receive the Nobel Prize in Physics, testified that further rises in temperature would lead to more severe and frequent droughts.\u003cbr\u003e The director of the Woods Hole Institute strongly urged senators to immediately develop a plan to reduce carbon dioxide-emitting fossil fuels, including coal and oil.\u003cbr\u003e Both emphasized the existence of long-standing research and scientific consensus. \u003cbr\u003eThe next day, the headline on the front page of the New York Times was “Global Warming Has Already Started.”\u003cbr\u003e Even then, it should have been a turning point.\u003cbr\u003e But that didn't happen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Because of politicians who deny the climate crisis and fossil fuel companies like ExxonMobil.\u003cbr\u003e They have sabotaged efforts to address the climate crisis with the ridiculous but effective rhetoric that winters are still snowy and teeth-chillingly cold, and with \"scientific\" data that disproves global warming.\u003cbr\u003e “We will emphasize uncertainty.” Indeed, an internal ExxonMobil document released in 1988 clearly reveals their strategy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The author tells the readers what he would say if he were to go to Congress again.\u003cbr\u003e Below is an excerpt from it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “The Earth can change.\u003cbr\u003e We can change too.\u003cbr\u003e Tackling climate change will be a huge experiment.\u003cbr\u003e Still, I would like to try that experiment. \u003cbr\u003e“I’m a mad scientist anyway.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e“The real cause of the climate crisis is us.”\u003cbr\u003e Can we bring back the Earth?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Can the Earth change?

To do so, we must first understand what caused the Earth to become what it is today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Science has advanced since the time of James VI, so we no longer blame witches for climate change.\u003cbr\u003e Modern science has identified a number of factors, both human and natural, that influence Earth's temperature.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the late 16th century, when a severe cold wave hit Europe, a 'witch hunt' took place.\u003cbr\u003e A sudden climate change caused famine across Europe, and people at the time, who thought such a thing could not have happened naturally, looked for someone to blame. \u003cbr\u003eWomen blamed for the abnormal climate were beaten, starved, and nailed to walls.\u003cbr\u003e It's not the 16th century anymore.\u003cbr\u003e Thanks to modern science, we can now pinpoint the real causes of the climate crisis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The climate crisis is caused by greenhouse gases.\u003cbr\u003e And we are the ones who create and emit greenhouse gases.\u003cbr\u003e Both are unchanging facts.\u003cbr\u003e Because of this, the temperature of the atmosphere continues to rise (today, the Earth's temperature is more than 1.3 degrees Celsius higher than during the Industrial Revolution).\u003cbr\u003e In Chapter 3, “Guilt,” the author, like a detective on an investigation, identifies the causes of the climate crisis one by one.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The first suspect is internal volatility.\u003cbr\u003e Looking back at the history of the Earth, there have been periods when temperatures were unusually high and low, and we are currently in one of those periods. \u003cbr\u003eBut internal variability has not consistently raised Earth's temperature for more than a century.\u003cbr\u003e The author argues that insisting that internal variability is the cause of climate change is like looking at a corpse covered in bloody handprints and saying, \"It died of natural causes.\"\u003cbr\u003e The second is the sun, which has recently become hotter.\u003cbr\u003e But there is no such evidence.\u003cbr\u003e The same goes for the third Earth's revolution and rotation.\u003cbr\u003e Again, insufficient evidence.\u003cbr\u003e Fourth, what about volcanic eruptions? Indeed, the Little Ice Age of the 16th and 17th centuries began with a series of large-scale volcanic eruptions.\u003cbr\u003e In fact, the dust and gases ejected by volcanic eruptions can block out the sun and lower temperatures.\u003cbr\u003e That is, at least global warming is not related.\u003cbr\u003e The fifth is aerosol, which is sulfur dioxide gas produced when fossil fuels are burned. \u003cbr\u003eIs aerosol pollution the main culprit behind global warming? Like volcanic eruptions, the answer is quite the opposite.\u003cbr\u003e Aerosols block sunlight and lower atmospheric temperatures.\u003cbr\u003e In fact, when many factories closed during the COVID-19 pandemic, aerosol emissions decreased and temperatures rose slightly.\u003cbr\u003e Ultimately, the cause of everything lies with us.\u003cbr\u003e Every time we burn fossil fuels, clear forests, make plastics, or use refrigerators and air conditioners, the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere increases, leading to rising temperatures.\u003cbr\u003e The author makes this point clear and says that we should all feel guilty.\u003cbr\u003e But it doesn't stop there.\u003cbr\u003e Because guilt in itself is useless.\u003cbr\u003e It only makes sense if you take action.\u003cbr\u003e “We have sin.\u003cbr\u003e And that means we can regret and make amends. \u003cbr\u003eNow is the time to act quickly to avoid a worse situation.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e“The stories we write can contain hope.”\u003cbr\u003e Wonder, anger, guilt, fear, grief, surprise, pride, hope, love\u003cbr\u003e The Earth's Crisis and Future as Seen Through Nine Emotions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"I'm a Crazy Climate Scientist\" examines the issue of global warming through the lens of universal human emotions like anger and guilt.\u003cbr\u003e There are nine emotions in total: wonder, anger, guilt, fear, grief, surprise, pride, hope, and love.\u003cbr\u003e Even though he is a scientist who must speak clear scientific facts, he approaches the climate crisis through emotions because we are all beings who feel complex and contradictory emotions.\u003cbr\u003e The author himself is no exception. \u003cbr\u003eAlso, because we know better than anyone that solving the climate crisis depends on human behavior that is both 'stupid and mean, but also clever and kind.'\u003cbr\u003e In reality, we feel angry about the lack of effective efforts to reduce greenhouse gases, but sometimes we also face guilt about the fact that we ourselves are contributing to environmental destruction.\u003cbr\u003e It's like being a victim and a perpetrator at the same time.\u003cbr\u003e We also feel fear in the face of climate disasters that have become routine, and we are filled with sadness as we think about the things that are disappearing due to the great changes.\u003cbr\u003e Yet, in a corner of my heart, I harbor hope that things can get better in the future, and I feel boundless love in front of the beautiful nature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “It’s up to us how much worse things get.\u003cbr\u003e The future still lies in the hands of humans.” Stories from the past give us hope. \u003cbr\u003eOne of the problems in British and American society in the 1950s and 1960s was air quality.\u003cbr\u003e The sky was literally ashen with smoke billowing from the factory.\u003cbr\u003e The smog that covered London in 1952 killed more than 12,000 people.\u003cbr\u003e Four years earlier, smog in Pennsylvania sickened 6,000 people and killed 20.\u003cbr\u003e The Clean Air Act, enacted in the United States in 1970, put the brakes on this.\u003cbr\u003e It was intended to regulate pollutant emissions from factories and vehicles, and a 1990 amendment mandated a significant reduction in sulfur dioxide emissions.\u003cbr\u003e Thanks to this, sulfur dioxide has been drastically reduced in the United States today, and acid rain has also been greatly reduced.\u003cbr\u003e And that's not all. \u003cbr\u003eAfter discovering that freon gas, used in air conditioners and fire extinguishers in the past, was destroying the ozone layer, it was successfully withdrawn from the market, and leaded gasoline, which not only spreads lead into the atmosphere but also causes lead poisoning, was successfully banned from being used as a car fuel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e“The vastness can only be endured by love.”\u003cbr\u003e The universal human emotion that connects us to the climate crisis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Unlike most climate science books that focus on research results and statistics, \"I'm a Crazy Climate Scientist\" opens up new horizons by approaching the climate crisis through emotional lens.\u003cbr\u003e It tells us what's happening now through the language of cold science, while at the same time reconnecting us all to the planet through the most human empathy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e“Talking about climate change often seems to demand a specific response from people.\u003cbr\u003e Emotions like fear, anger, and despair.\u003cbr\u003e But I don't think there is a 'right' emotion we should feel.\u003cbr\u003e To me, who has studied the Earth for a long time, the Earth is a complex place.\u003cbr\u003e It is both vulnerable and resilient, a place both awe-inspiring and terrifying.\u003cbr\u003e “Can we possibly summarize our feelings about this great planet called Earth in just one or two words?”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There is probably no one who does not feel some emotion in the face of the great changes that are now taking place in this world.\u003cbr\u003e Emotions in themselves do not create any change, but neither does feeling something lead to action.\u003cbr\u003e This is why we explore the past, present, and future of the Earth along the spectrum of nine emotions. \u003cbr\u003eAnd that long journey ends with 'love'.\u003cbr\u003e As the author quotes Carl Sagan, “The only way for small beings like us to endure this vastness is through love.”\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 9, \"Love,\" is filled with memories of places cherished since childhood, loneliness felt during the COVID-19 pandemic, awe felt in front of the vastness of nature, and the moment when one pledged to create a better future in front of a newborn child, leaving a deep resonance.\u003cbr\u003e Another great virtue of this book is its scientific and historical narrative, built through meticulous research and a unique perspective.\u003cbr\u003e It is a fascinating interweaving of the relationship between the rise and fall of the Roman and Mongol Empires and climate change, the stark reality of inequality in American society revealed by hurricanes, anecdotes from scientists and countless ordinary people who fought to prevent the climate crisis, and the impact of natural cataclysms, including volcanic eruptions, on human history. \u003cbr\u003eDespite its considerable length, the delicate and beautiful sentences and well-placed humor keep you hooked until the very end.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It has been recommended by renowned science writers such as Sasha Sagan, Carl Sagan's daughter and science communicator, and John Vaillant, author of Fire Weather, and was named one of the Amazon Editors' Best Nonfiction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A book about climate change doesn't have to be depressing.\u003cbr\u003e The author shares earth science facts and fascinating anecdotes that science nerds will love, and uses imaginary scenarios to illustrate the consequences of climate change.\u003cbr\u003e - 《Kirkus Reviews》\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This work stands out among the discussions of the climate crisis in this day and age.\u003cbr\u003e In this beautiful debut, Marvel tackles the issue of global warming through the emotions evoked by the climate crisis.\u003cbr\u003e - Publisher's Weekly\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e
