"Rain gave us Inspector Morse and the sliding tackle. Fog gave us the Cat's Eye, Impressionism and chains on front doors. Wind brought a Protestant monarchy. Hail gave us the Norwich Union insurance company. Storms gave us the pencil, the lifeboat, the Norfolk Broads and the first weather forecast. And cold, grey days? Penicillin." "In Britain, what isn't affected by the weather? Since the first chilly Roman sat on Hadrian's Wall and pulled his socks on before his sandals (yes, they're the culprits), British life and British weather have been inseparable." "This is the story of a people forever caught out in the rain (or by the wrong kind of snow). But it's also the story of a country that knows how to appreciate a fine day. It's about an obsession with fresh air - and the thousands of ways we've devised to make the most of it. Because, beneath our restless skies, there's something only we know: in Britain, there's no such thing as a dull day."--BOOK JACKET.

From leading climate scientist Dr. Friederike Otto, this gripping book reveals the revolutionary science that definitively links extreme weather events—including deadly heat waves, forest fires, floods, and hurricanes—to climate change. “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 Tied with Hurricane Katrina as the costliest cyclone on record, Hurricane Harvey caused catastrophic flooding and over a hundred deaths in 2017. Angry Weather tells the compelling, day-by-day story of the World Weather Attribution unit—a team of scientists that studies extreme weather events while they’re happening—and their race to track the connection between the hurricane and climate change. As the hurricane unfolds, Otto reveals how attribution science works in real time, and determines that Harvey’s terrifying floods were three times more likely to occur due to human-induced climate change. At the forefront of cutting-edge climate science, Friederike Otto uncovers how the new ability to determine climate change’s role in extreme weather events can dramatically transform how we view the climate crisis: from how it will affect those of us who are most vulnerable, to the corporations and governments that may find themselves held accountable in the courts. The research laid out in Angry Weather will have profound impacts, both today and for the future of humankind. Published in Partnership with the David Suzuki Institute.
