Herman, Gail, 1959- (author.). Hinderliter, John, (illustrator.).

While the vast majority of scientists who study the environment agree that humans play a large part in climate change, there is a counterargument. Author Gail Herman presents both sides of the debate in this fact-based, fair-minded, and well-researched book that looks at the subject from many perspectives, including scientific, social, and political"-- Provided by publisher.
