    Pandemics, massive earthquakes, war, and other catastrophes inspire immediate action because their casualties and destruction are immediately visible. Climate change is an unyielding problem because its long-range dangers are hidden, and thus it is a global risk unlike anything in human experience
    		 
    The federal government recently announced aggressive climate targets for Canada. We have committed to producing net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, which will require major changes for our economy and way of life. Canadian citizens need to understand why our most distinguished climate scientists and our senior political leaders think that we must meet this target. Canada and Climate Change explains the importance of policies that will ensure we meet the net-zero emissions target. William Leiss provides a firm grasp on what climate change is and how scientists have described shifts in the earth’s climate as they have occurred over hundreds of millions of years and as they are likely to occur in the near future, especially by the end of this century.
    		 
    Leiss argues that citizens have a right to place their trust in what climate scientists tell us. Canada and Climate Change is an essential primer on where we stand on the issue of climate change in Canada and what will unfold in the years ahead.

    Microbiology is the branch of science that deals with the study of microorganisms, which are organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, fungi, algae, and protozoa. Although these tiny life forms are invisible to the unaided eye, they play a vital role in the environment, human health, and various industrial processes. The field of microbiology encompasses a broad range of topics, from the structure and function of microorganisms to their interactions with humans, animals, plants, and the environment. 
      
    One of the primary aspects of microbiology is understanding the diversity of microorganisms. Bacteria, for example, are among the most abundant and diverse organisms on Earth. They exist in numerous environments, from the human body to extreme habitats like hot springs and deep-sea vents. Viruses, on the other hand, are unique in that they cannot replicate on their own and require a host cell to reproduce. Fungi and protozoa, while distinct from bacteria, also contribute significantly to ecosystems and human health, with some acting as pathogens and others playing key roles in decomposition and nutrient cycling. 
      
    The study of microbiology is crucial for several reasons. Microorganisms are central to processes such as digestion, fermentation, and the nitrogen cycle. They are also responsible for many diseases, which makes understanding their biology essential for developing effective treatments and preventive measures. Advances in microbiology have led to the discovery of antibiotics, vaccines, and other life-saving technologies. Additionally, microbiology has applications in biotechnology, where microorganisms are used in the production of food, medicines, and biofuels, as well as in environmental management through processes like bioremediation.

    You are an Agile Coach and you are being called in to fix a bad problem.  Your client has entered into a fixed price contract with their client, but it looks like the project is going sour.  Half of the time and money have been spent but only about 30 percent of the milestones have been reached.  Management wants you to "do Agile" and fix the problem. 
    What should you do? 
    This case and the others in the series come from the real-world experiences of a group of Scrum professionals who meet regularly to discuss the Scrum Framework and how to apply it to actual situations they have encountered.  These discussions have been led since 2015 by Frederik Mark Fowler, A Doctor of Scrum and Holder of the Professional Scrum Master level III certification awarded by Scrum.org.  Fred has worked with the Scrum Framework for almost 20 years and has trained more then 300 people to become Scrum Masters and Product Owners.
