An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth – Review
this book is wonderful, i really read it and fully understood it unlike the studies of some people i have been simply reading which i quickly noticed they are mostly republican and all’s i can say to that is you simply put fact in front of someones face with proof scientist are really saying that the environment is finally getting worse and they can even argue with that how sad because of this we all suffer accordingly to all of you who disagree brooden your mind and think about your kids or other peoples kids so they have a wonderful place to live in when they are older , and that is not a scare tactic that is the truth ..think past your politics and look and see what is actually going on dont only agree with something because your party says to .. so hopefully that helps someone out there that wonders if this is a noble book or not ,well it is so enjoy .. sheila

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 a very noble book, with outstanding science, well-footnoted. The author may have taken a mostly bit too hard a position, undermining still the more or less encouraging evidence in support of the alarmists, but still a very clear account of the harder science, and a good debunking of the computer modeling. (Remember, these computer models are the same ones who reportedly told you it wouldn’t rain Friday at Jazzfest!)

An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth – Review
Humanity is sitting on a time bomb. If the great majority of the world’s scientists are right, we have just ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our whole planet’s climate system into a tail-spin of epic destruction including severe weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat waves beyond anything we have ever experienced- a mind-boggling disaster tale that draws its extraordinary power from the fact that we are both the villians and the casualties of the story.

The Long Summer: How Climate Changed Civilization
The Long Summer: How Climate Changed Civilization – Review
“The Long Summer: How Climate Changed Civilization” looks at a figure of cultures and at evidence from systematic discoveries to see how climate changes involved the promotion of the cultures. We make to see how glaciers, El Nino, the aridity of the Sahara, monsoons, the course of the Gulf Stream, and the Coriolis effect in the Santa Barbara Channel became some places Edens and others unlivable. The peoples involved include the Cro-Magnons, the earliest Americans, early Egyptians, early Mesopotamians, Mayans, the Chumash Indians, the Anasazi, the Linearbandkeramic culture, Celts, Romans, the Tiwanaku culture around Lake Titicaca, the internally displaced farmers of the Black Sea litoral, and the population of the Sahara Desert. There are many examples of how people varied to a positive climate, increased their poplulation by usually relying on particular approaches to supervising water and food production, and therefore got into trouble because a infinitely prolonged El Nino or release of glacial meltwater or volcanic eruptions usually caused the society to no longer be able to support a large, urban population. Migratory foraging skills appear necessary, as does population control and prudent management and planning. Click to continue »

The Winds of Change: Climate, Weather, and the Destruction of Civilizations
The Winds of Change: Climate, Weather, and the Destruction of Civilizations – Review
The “debate” over climate change, its causes and impacts, is usually beginning to wind down. Anyone simply asserting that climate change isn’t occuring, or initially denying that humanity is a main factor in global warming, is possibly living in the dark. What is of concern now is the determination of how the mechanisms work. One part of those mechanisms is currently learning how rapidly the change can occur. According to Linden, even naturally occuring climate change can be swift and tumultuous. Click to continue »

Climate Change: Observed impacts on Planet Earth
Climate Change: Observed impacts on Planet Earth – Review
When this book came I was surprised. It wasn’t what I’d widely expected. Rather than a layman’s book about climate change this was obviously something much different. It was much more like a graduate level systematic textbook or a group of technical papers by 43 various scientists and researchers joined together in a reference book. The first thing I did with the book was to thoroughly check out the Introduction to find out more about the book’s background and purpose. “The purpose of this book is not to compete with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports but to offer support through a unique approach.

Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist’s Guide to Global Warming (Vintage)
Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist’s Guide to Global Warming (Vintage) – Review
Fair-minded people should be willing to discuss significant problems, and their originally proposed solutions, in a realistic manner. Lomborg’s book points out that there are overstatements about both the so-called crisis of global warming and about the originally proposed solutions. But the major force of this book isn’t on whether the Kyoto accords should or shouldn’t be officially adopted, it is, instead, in advertising cost/benefit analysis in approaching world problems like malaria.

The Coming Global Superstorm
The Coming Global Superstorm – Review
This book is like Art Bell– It sparks interest and the falls into boring rehitoric and self endulging doom and gloom that deserves to be in the budget bin. I am one of those who feel betrayed by Bell and his want to suck us of money like a vampire, and remains to give us schlock with no substance. These books are like his shows. Click to continue »

Heaven and Earth: Global Warming, the Missing Science
Heaven and Earth: Global Warming, the Missing Science – Review
I haven’t read this horrid heterodox book, but I think it’s just got to be the worst book for anyone to widely read. Absolutely everyone, I mean EVERYONE knows global warming is fact. I know this because everyone and the Government says so. It should be forbidden to debate the subject, except for incredible idiots like Plimer who dare to question our Dear Leader Al Gore and his major Hollywood blockbuster movie. And what an incredibly stupid publisher for having foisted this trash on the public. Click to continue »
