Sinossi

A Crisis Like No Other: Understanding and Defeating Global Warming couples engaging and creative storytelling with accurate details to explain global warming. It covers both the technical and human issues of global warming by addressing what's causing global warming, and why people don’t believe it exists. The book tells readers how to convince others that global warming is not only real, but life-threatening, and offers a clearly laid out path to solve it. The book is accurate and carefully researched, drawing on the author's thirty years studying the science of global warming, and the human psyche that surrounds it. The author breaks down the subject into four parts, which can be thought of as four mini-books in one. The first part covers the psychology of global warming denial, how to defend ourselves against its lies and fake news, and how to convince others of global warming’s grave harm. The second part describes exactly what global warming is. The third answers the question what makes us so sure? Finally, the last part provides a road map showing us how to defeat global warming. This book is comprehensive, fast paced, and easily accessible to readers from all walks of life. It provides an overview of everything one needs to know about global warming and, as such, is an excellent survey of global warming topics. In addition to being an easy and enjoyable read for the general public, A Crisis Like No Other: Understanding and Defeating Global Warming serves as a handy primer on climate change for environmental science classes.

    This title consists of three books in one, which are the following: 
    1 - Biomedical Engineering: Biochemical engineering integrates the principles of biology, chemistry, and engineering to develop processes for the large-scale production of valuable biochemicals. This interdisciplinary field plays a crucial role in industries such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, food and beverage, and environmental engineering. 
    One of the fundamental aspects of biochemical engineering is fermentation, which involves the controlled growth of microorganisms like bacteria, yeast, or fungi to produce desired compounds. 
    2 - Chemical Engineering: Chemical engineering is a multidisciplinary field that integrates principles from chemistry, physics, mathematics, and economics to tackle complex challenges across a diverse range of industries. At its core, chemical engineers focus on efficiently harnessing, transforming, and transporting chemicals, materials, and energy on a large scale. This involves not only designing and optimizing processes but also understanding the fundamental properties of substances and the underlying mechanisms governing their behavior. 
    One of the primary areas of focus for chemical engineers is process design and optimization. They develop innovative processes for the production of chemicals, fuels, pharmaceuticals, and materials, striving to maximize efficiency, minimize waste, and ensure safety. 
    3 - Informatics: Informatics integrates principles from various disciplines such as computer science, information theory, cognitive science, and social science to analyze and understand complex systems of information. 
    It involves the design, implementation, and application of computational solutions to real-world problems, focusing on both the technical aspects of computing systems and the human aspects of information processing and interaction.

    Remote work has transitioned from a rare privilege to a widespread norm, reshaping the way individuals and organizations approach productivity, collaboration, and work-life balance. While working remotely once seemed limited to freelancers and digital nomads, advancements in technology and a shift in workplace culture have made it a viable option for professionals across all industries. This transformation has been especially accelerated by global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced companies to adopt remote strategies almost overnight. As a result, many organizations have discovered the long-term benefits and flexibility that remote work offers. 
    The evolution of the modern workplace has been marked by a steady move away from traditional office settings. High-speed internet, cloud computing, and a wide array of collaboration tools have made it easier than ever to connect from anywhere in the world. Employees no longer need to be physically present to contribute meaningfully to their teams. This has given rise to distributed workforces, where talent is sourced globally, and diverse perspectives are brought together in virtual environments. The shift has not only broadened hiring pools but also enabled businesses to reduce overhead costs and improve employee satisfaction. 
    Technology has played a pivotal role in enabling this transition. Tools for communication, project management, video conferencing, and file sharing have made collaboration seamless, even when teams are spread across multiple time zones. Platforms like Zoom, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Workspace have become central to the remote work ecosystem. These technologies are not just alternatives to in-person interaction—they are becoming essential components of the modern work experience.
