'Meet the forensic scientists of climate change; if you like CSI, you'll be equally enthralled with the skill and speed these folks exhibit. But the stakes are infinitely higher!' - Bill McKibben, author of Falter and The End of Nature
Originally published in Germany in 2019.
“A good overview of the climate-change issue … the evolution of climate change in the industrial era, the politics over the issue, and the responsibilities of the industrialized world—in particular, corporations and governments—to help repair the damage. The result is a most timely book.”
—Booklist
“For the fact-minded, Otto’s arguments are incontrovertible.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“This elegant new branch of climate science …[will] have profound implications for public policy and planning, and will lead to even more useful research in the future.”
—Vancouver Sun
“Angry Weather is all about science, but it is not all technical. It is a readable book for those who have limited knowledge of weather and climate systems. Otto provides succinct scientific explanations throughout the book to ensure her main points are supported by science but still understandable and relevant to the main message.”
—Alternatives Journal
“Attribution science—climate forensics, or reverse engineering—is a new discipline explained in this book with passion and verve by one of its creators. Fredi Otto is destined to be one of those rare scientists whose name becomes well known in the wider world.”
—Mark Denny, author of Making Sense of Weather and Climate: The Science Behind the Forecasts
“Angry Weather introduces us to the forensic scientists of climate change; if you like to watch CSI, you’ll be equally enthralled with the skill and speed these folks exhibit. But the stakes are infinitely higher!”
—Bill McKibben, author of Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out?
“[A] thrilling work of nonfiction... If readers were holding any doubt about climate’s effects on weather before picking up this book, that doubt will be eviscerated before the last gripping page.”
—Literary Hub
“This fascinating book takes us on a voyage across the cutting edge of climate science that irrevocably alters our perspective of the world in which we live and the future it holds. I wish I could make this book required reading for the world.”
—Katharine Hayhoe, UN Champion of the Earth
