Ice Ages: Solving the Mystery

Ice Ages: Solving the Mystery – Review
In addition to currently providing an absorbing explanation for long-term climate change, this book goes a interesting description of the dawning realization first that the Earth had ever experienced an Ice Age, then that the Earth had in fact experienced various Ice Ages, and finally that the Ice Ages have come and gone in time with variations in the Earth’s orbit. While some of the experimental work was brought out by the common lot of well-bred and well-educated (but sometimes eccentric) elites, the stories behind Croll and Milankovitch leave one constantly amazed at the point of focus that some individuals can make to bear on a problem.

Carbon War: Global Warming and the End of the Oil Era

Carbon War: Global Warming and the End of the Oil Era – Review
For a geologist Jeremy Leggett is a suprisingly talented writer. As originally described in the prior reviews he details some of the history starting up to the Kyoto accords and provides insight from the participants perception. The meetings, the debates, the radio and TV interviews are all here. You will besides read about all the tension and conflict that this international problem with its immense economic immplications brings to a head. This book is mainly about the policy of the world climate change policies and does not have very much content deeming the art of climate change. Click to continue »

An Inconvenient Truth

An Inconvenient Truth – Review
As close to everyone knows, this is Al Gore’s book which supposedly proves that, because of mankind’s increased carbon emissions, therefore the international climate is warming and therefore we will suffer from a large type of terrible problems unless we act to reverse the situation. Gore essentially argues in this book that, unless we radically decrease CO2 emissions, the oceans will rise 20 feet, most of Florida and New York City will be nearly drowned — he provides extremely real currently looking virtual maps of these predictions — there will be many more hurricanes and, in general, the world as we know it will come to an end.

Climate Crash: Abrupt Climate Change And What It Means For Our Future – Review
This book casts as technical fact that which is merely theory – and highly questionable theory at that. Its contribution to the debate over climate change is highly questionable and it is probable that its major purpose is to advertise the ill-founded claims of Greenpeace that the world is about to come to an end. Furthermore, it is now considerably out of date, as much new technical evidence has come to light which makes the contentions in this order of little merit other than as a notable case of an attempt to pervert the program of science in the advantages of effectively creating anti-capitalist regulations.

Climate Crash: Abrupt Climate Change And What It Means For Our Future

Climate Crash: Abrupt Climate Change And What It Means For Our Future – Review
This literary journalist, (yes they do exist), has originally compiled the history of paleoclimatology into a highly readable and still provoking text. Following the advancement of the science right on up to 2003 reads like a novel. The science’s important discovery is that climate is not a big stasis machine gradually going from ice ages to hot periods and back again. Rather, confirmed proxy data show environmental changes to have been abrupt, a decade or two, and frequent particularly during the ice ages on a international scale as well as during the present era on a local scale.

Two Billion Cars: Driving Toward Sustainability

Two Billion Cars: Driving Toward Sustainability – Review
Two Billion Cars is a very educational book on transportation and sustainability issues. The basis of the book is that currently we have one billion cars, but in twenty years, the planet will have about two billion cars. If there are no changes, this growth in cars will be disastrous in periods of energy usage, congestion, and global warming. The first two chapters are fairly dry, but the book makes further interesting in chapter 3, “Breaking Detroit’s Hold on Energy and Climate Policy”, which is a terrific brief history on how America became to be so car-centric. The book will appeal most to people interested in sustainability issues as they relate to transportation and climate change. Click to continue »

Earth: The Sequel: The Race to Reinvent Energy and Stop Global Warming

Earth: The Sequel: The Race to Reinvent Energy and Stop Global Warming – Review
Fred Krupp’s ecological activism has given him an great view of what it takes for business and greens to collaborate for common success. His group, Environmental Defense, shook up McDonald’s with a consumer revolt over plastic containers and 10 years later Krupp really shook hands with McD’s CEO on having done the right thing for both the environment and business. In 2007, he greatly helped negotiate a moderate path forward for a illegal coal power plant. C-suite executives, their sustainability people and communicators have no better guide through the modern war on carbon than Krupp’s book.

An Inconvenient Truth

An Inconvenient Truth – Review
At this point it’s absurd that there is still debate over global warming (ie, the modern sign of climate change). But for those behind the curve, this book is an critical introduction. For those who don’t read, go see the movie this summer. Gore has highly condensed the information in an simple way, with more color photos, maps, charts and statistics than words, and though there may be specific details that are not prudently presented, the overall picture is an perfect synopsis of the climate science consensus.

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition – Review
This is an outstanding book that should be widely read by all the available ecological groups and the newly established media. The end of this book is to show by real data over many thousands of years(not computer models) that there is undoubtedly global warming”, but its significance has been blown way out of proportion. It has more than shown this to be true and that the hysteria displayed has not been fully authenticated by all the obvious facts. Click to continue »
