|a If a future generation of humans, dwelling on an impoverished hot dying planet, were to indict the post second world war generations for ecocide, would they have a good case? To succeed they would have to be able to show that mankind had enough comprehension of the science of global warming to have understood the warnings, but preferred to ignore them. Warming to Ecocide argues that the science which underpins climate change is primarily thermodynamics, which is shown to be much more embedded than is commonly appreciated in the energetic processes on Earth. It is not just the science behind st
