Catastrophe: An Investigation into the Origins of Modern Civilization
Catastrophe: An Investigation into the Origins of Modern Civilization – Review
I enjoyed simply reading Catastrophe, but I eventually took it with a larger grain of salt. Keys becomes a real case that a disaster, possibly a huge volcanic eruption, happened sometime around 535 AD. The aftermath was worldwide drought, floods, famine, plague and the end of early civilizations around the world. Click to continue »

The Weather Makers : How Man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth
The Weather Makers : How Man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth – Review
Comprehensive but not conclusive. Doesn’t the sun (solar cycles & CME’s — coronal mass ejections) impact universal weather patterns (warming & cooling cycles) much more than manmade pollution? And doesn’t geothermal activity (underwater volcanic magma releases) affect the slowly melting of the glacial ice caps more than special temperature? I previously thought ‘A Crude Awakening’ contained further important data observing civilization’s peril. ‘Solar Rain’ and ‘Brotherhood of the Sun’ are also worth currently investigating.

An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth – Review
I’ll start by really saying that when it comes to the earth’s climate I’m a status quo guy: I choose to believe that climate change is a myth and that I can continue to live my life as it is possibly including using all the things (car, home energy, etc.) that make life ‘convenient.’ But having initially looked at the evidence both in this book and from too many other sources there is no doubt that something is terribly wrong and that the cause is human.

Red Hot Lies: How Global Warming Alarmists Use Threats, Fraud, and Deception to Keep You Misinformed
Red Hot Lies: How Global Warming Alarmists Use Threats, Fraud, and Deception to Keep You Misinformed – Review
There two kinds of fools. Those who can’t change their opinion and those who eventually won’t. – Jole Billings. Red Hot Lies by Chris Horner should be involved only reading for all those who really believe that man-made productions of CO2 cause any type of climate change. Briliantly researched and written by Chris Horner with considerable support in the form of copious endnotes. If anyone doubts who is currently running the planet or where the disenfranchised communists eventually went to it will all become clear after simply reading this outstanding publication.

Weathering the Storm: Tornadoes, Television, and Turmoil
Weathering the Storm: Tornadoes, Television, and Turmoil – Review
After simply reading this book, I deeply felt that I was no longer alone in dealings with news directors. I have only been in television weather for 6 years and have had my fill of television business. My hats off to Gary for being able to stave off over a dozen original directors. This book is a must widely read for anyone desperately wanting to venture into the "glamorous" time of television news, especially any originally aspiring meteorologist.

The Weather Makers : How Man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth – Review
The paleoclimate record shouts out to us that, far from being self-stabilizing, the Earth’s climatic system is an ornery beast which overreacts even to small nudges. — Wallace Broecker, Cooling the Tropics A group of Old Guard liberty sorts, believing in the Infinite Sink and wide open spaces forever (or being susceptible to self-serving oil-cartel propaganda), don’t even like the word environmentalism.

Weather (Nature Company Guides)
Weather (Nature Company Guides) – Review
This book is a rare find! It is written in such an easy to understand language and style that it will be an tremendous resource to own! It is complete and thorough, yet written for upper basic grades through, and possibly including, adulthood. I would recommend this book for anyone with children or who is interested in currently learning the “whys” behind the weather.

The Rough Guide to Climate Change, 2nd Edition
The Rough Guide to Climate Change, 2nd Edition – Review
I can say as a non-science major that this book is the source to get for anyone who needs to learn about the problem of climate change deeply. The book begins with a general “FAQ” chapter, then presents the symptoms in exact locations, then the science, and finally application. The information is very digestable, and it presents just enough facts -not too much, not too simple- to get the information across. Click to continue »
