The Cartoon Introduction to Climate Change (Revised Edition) is a unique and engaging overview of climate science and its impact on the planet. The product of a creative collaboration between illustrator Grady Klein and Yoram Bauman called "the world’s first and only stand-up economist,” the book is a valuable contribution to the literature on climate change. The first edition, published in 2014, was a breakthrough in offering an entertaining, illustrated guide to the global crisis. The 2022 Revised Edition has been updated with the latest scientific data from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Despite the daunting statistics on the dire state of our changing world, the humorous and informative cartoons engage and entertain the reader, allowing us to become familiar with critical concepts in climate science, projections, and policy.
