There is no dearth of books on climate change. But there are not too many, particularly written with reference to India. The present book deals with both global (macro level) and regional (micro level, i.e., India) scenarios using some selective case studies of the problem.

Our climate is no doubt changing. This is certain; less certain is the timing and magnitude of change. The objective of the book is to present a synthetic view of theoretical analysis and observations on climate, and policy issues within the broad conceptual matrix of geography. It is hoped that this book will be of immense use to scholars, researchers, geographers, environmentalists, professionals, policy makers and general readers as well.
