Un cazador inuit abatió un extraño oso polar en bahía de Hudson. Sus patas no eran blancas, sino castañas. Tras un análisis más exhaustivo, se comprobó que el animal también presentaba unas zarpas más grandes de lo normal, además, la forma de su cabeza recordaba a la de un oso grizzly. El cambio climático es uno de los mayores desafíos a los que se enfrenta la humanidad. El tema acapara titulares de prensa, es motivo de reuniones científicas, se hace notar en los discursos políticos… Pero, ¿cómo y cuándo comenzó? ¿Cuál es la historia de su descubrimiento? ¿Por qué la ciencia es tan rotunda al respecto? ¿Qué alcance está teniendo sobre la biosfera? El reconocido divulgador científico Angel León, autor de Historia de las especies invasoras, nos propone un apasionante recorrido para conocer a quienes resolvieron el complejo puzle de los principales eventos que moldean el clima de nuestro planeta. Con un estilo ameno y accesible, nos adentra en las anfractuosas interacciones entre glaciares, volcanes o el mismo Sol, siguiendo el hilo sobre cómo la ciencia estudió sus efectos, para acabar comprendiendo que una sola especie, el Homo sapiens, había sido capaz de influir en el clima de todo un planeta.
An Inuit hunter shot a strange polar bear in Hudson Bay. Its paws were not white, but brown. Upon further analysis, it was found that the animal also had larger than normal paws, and the shape of its head resembled that of a grizzly bear. Climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. But how and when did it begin? What is the history of its discovery? Why is science so emphatic about it? What impact is it having on the biosphere? The renowned science popularizer Angel Leon, author of History of Invasive Species, proposes an exciting journey to get to know those who solved the complex puzzle of the main events that shape the climate of our planet. With a pleasant and accessible style, he takes us into the anfractuous interactions between glaciers, volcanoes or the Sun itself, following the thread of how science studied their effects, to end up understanding that a single species, Homo sapiens, had been able to influence the climate of an entire planet.
