Climate Change, UK Climate Change, American Climate Change, Australian Climate Change, Canadian Climate Change, New Zealand Climate Change

UK is certainly getting its share of weird weather this summer after the amazing spring heatwave. Unpredictable weather patterns bringing drought, floods and storms to countries across the world are predicted to become the norm as the planet warms. I have always found the confusing facts and evidence hard to work through but would recommend this excellent book by Australian Tim Flannery if you are looking for a potted history of climate change and realistic predictions for the future. It was first published in 2007 and probably needs updating but despite this, it is certainly the easiest and best laid out book I have read on climate change.

I am not an experienced gardener - more of an enthusiastic amateur who learns by trial and error and is keen to "manage" the effects of the weather on my garden. Writing this blog is my passion and I hope that it will continue to grow, allowing global gardeners to communicate about the effects of climate change on our plants and the future of our gardens.
