Talking about the weather used to be small talk; now, it's the hottest topic on Earth. We can't survive without Earth's atmosphere, yet most of the time we ignore it.

We treat our atmosphere as a rubbish dump for our greenhouse gas emissions. Slowly but surely, what we are doing is changing Earth's climate.

Atmospheric cuts through the many voices raised around climate change to tell the story of our atmosphere, what is putting our climate at risk, and what we can do about it. This could be the most important book you read in your life.
