'Six Degrees' book launch with author Mark Lynas

SIX DEGREES -OUR FUTURE ON A
WARMER PLANET

SLIDESHOW & DISCUSSION WITH MARK LYNAS

Mark Lynas, Journalist & Author of the bestseller "High Tide"
launches his latest book "Six Degrees" in Cardiff!

Thursday 17 May at 7pm Main Building
Cardiff University Park Place
(opposite Student Union)

By the end of the century, the Earth could be more than 6C hotter than it is today. We know that would be bad news - but just how bad? How big a rise will it take for the Alps to melt, the oceans to die and desert to conquer Europe and the Americas? Mark Lynas sifted through thousands of scientific papers for his new book on global warming. This is what the research told him . . .

'An apocalyptic primer of what to expect as the world heats up...it's sobering stuff and shaming too.' Financial Times

'Buy this book for everyone you know...it might just save their lives.' New Stateman

Copies of Mark Lynas's critically acclaimed new book will be on sale after the meeting and Mark will be available to sign copies.
