This book gives concise review current knowledge required for develop strategies help us adapt change. It has been developed from author's graduate course environmental engineering, written without technical jargon so as be accessible wide range students policymakers who do not necessarily have scientific or engineering backgrounds. Appendices allow readers calculate themselves various strategies, contains student exercises references further reading.
