{"product_id":"adapting-to-intense-storms-adam-furgang-9781448868483","title":"Adapting to Intense Storms","description":"The frequency and severity of tornadoes, hurricanes, tropical storms, thunderstorms, blizzards, ice storms, dust storms, and cyclones have all increased around the globe. Scientists have found evidence that these storms are likely triggered by an overall warming of the planet, due largely to human activity, particularly the burning of heat-trapping fossil fuels. Readers will survey the scope of the problem, learn about the mechanisms at work behind storms of increasing frequency and intensity, see the outlined steps being taken to combat the global warming that promotes intense storms, and learn about the cutting-edge technologies being developed to secure our homes, offices, and other buildings and structures as well as protect the human lives they contain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adam Furgang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1448868483\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781448868483\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosen Central\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/30\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Library Binding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.50w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2012 pg. 38","brand":"Adam Furgang","offers":[{"title":"Library Binding","offer_id":48449621819647,"sku":"9781448868483","price":37.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_19362be3-f3fa-4b75-a171-08dedb26cea7.jpg?v=1777264193","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/adapting-to-intense-storms-adam-furgang-9781448868483","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
