Summary:
In this wide-ranging Very Short Introduction to climate, Mark Maslin considers all aspects of the global climate system, exploring and explaining the different components that control climate on Earth. He considers the processes that allow energy to reach the Earth and how it is redistributed around the planet by the ocean-atmosphere system; the relationship and differences between climate and the weather; how climate has affected life on Earth and human settlements; and the cyclic and quasi-cyclic features of climate such as the Milankovitch cycles and El Nino. He concludes by touching on the issue of climate change, and outlines some of the approaches that are now being taken to tackle it.

Summary:
As climate change increasingly emerges as a critical and prominent concern for modern society, the design field has actively responded by deeply engaging with the complex social, political, and cultural transformations that are anticipated as a direct result of this ongoing crisis. Furthermore, there has also been a significant expansion in the diverse range of climate-informed design explorations, moving well beyond merely the technical aspects of sustainability. ''The Climate Imaginary'' showcases an extensive global collection of innovative works that reflect this rich diversity. This pluralism resonates powerfully with the various disruptions that are set to impact every single aspect of our lives. The widespread and far-reaching consequences of this pressing emergency open up numerous subjects and themes for designers to explore creatively.
