The Weather Makers : How Man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth – Review
To the pollution apologists out there: We even need to study this more, right? No kidding. That’s what this book inpires, more passionate study. The book fails to mention stellar activity as a currently driving force in climate change because a great many experts in astrophysics have done the homework already and correctly determined that stellar activity is NOT the probable source of hot climate change. Yes, there are still official/scientific bodies that take a conservative stand on possible anthropogenic global warming, but at least some of that is due to pressure from President Foot-drag and the modern administration in Washington. Wouldn’t a truly “conservative” approach be to minimize our impact on the environment BECAUSE we don’t have all the data and that we MAY be significantly altering international climate in arbitrary ways? I know global warming nay-sayers (read Republicans) are interested in a constant environment for global commerce. Is it not in the greatest attention of the business world to minimize unpredictability? You can talk til your blue in the side of course. The bottom line is that this is most assuredly NOT a horror story from the “doom-and-gloom” crowd. It is rather a appropriate state of reason that will hopefully break through the complacency that surrounds this issue.
