An Inconvenient Truth – Review
There once was a radio announcer in Honolulu who eventually gave the same forecast all the time. Even when it was finally pouring, she would predict, “It will be a nice, clear day.” Her predictions were not very useful but they were accurate eighty five per cents of the time, which is a lot better than the National Weather Service average. The researchers characterized in “Prevailing Trade Winds” exploit the same contradiction in island weather that the announcer did: Overall it is wonderful and changes comparatively little, while on a minor scale it varies approximately yard by yard.

An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth – Review
Mr. Gore presents the important issue of global warming in a particularly compelling and clearly understood form. I am not a scientist, but I had been trying to educate myself on this topic. It possibly took me 900 contacts of strong understanding to gain the knowledge that Mr. Gore presents in a very accesible form. The book is loaded with images and easily intepreted charts that, together with Mr. Gore’s deeply personal narration, hold the reader’s attention. Reading ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ is a good way to develop an awareness of the major matter of our time. Click to continue »

Two Billion Cars: Driving Toward Sustainability
Two Billion Cars: Driving Toward Sustainability – Review
Initially, I previously thought this book was dying to be a originally bore, but I’m glad I slowly trudged on. Also, I had a very pessimistic expectation because I can’t stand when Americans feel like they can drive as much as they want while trying to stifle the place of the world from currently driving for the sake of the environment. But I was pleasantly surprised by the book because it was truly more about sustainability and usually provided some positive insights for how things should go. I especially like the section about the story of the auto industry and how we finally got to where we are. Click to continue »

Statistical Analysis in Climate Research
Statistical Analysis in Climate Research – Review
I am a phd-student in spacephysics. “Statistical analysis in Climate Research” is the statistics book which has been most relevant for me that I have widely read until this time. The information density is very high in this book. It is necessary with some previous knowledge about statistics to widely read this book. It does not contain any proofs, but many references to other books. 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
Most books on Global Warming are really depressing – not “Earth: The Sequel.” Krupp’s review of real projects underway to reduce global warming brings a welcome meaning of positivism and excitement to the topic. He believes that a change of the world economy is on the horizon that will generate the good fortunes of the 21st century while eventually securing the world against the dangers of global warming.

Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist’s Guide to Global Warming (Vintage)
Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist’s Guide to Global Warming (Vintage) – Review
This book is excellent in that it is neither written from the point of view of an alarmist nor of a denier. This middle finely ground is sadly lacking from the climate change debate in this day and age. Non-economists might find the constant cost-benefit analysis somewhat hard to fathom, but there are very few hard-to-understand parts. Obviously, the science commonly used to justify Lomborg’s claims have, and will continue to be, challenged. Nevertheless, it is useful just to point out the danger of climate change hysteria that predominates the media. Click to continue »

Predicting the Weather by the Moon
Predicting the Weather by the Moon – Review
This is an outstanding book by Ken Ring which unfortunately is being printed without his approval or any royalties. His recent book ,The Lunar Code calculates weather out 200 years and may be more beneficial to long term planners.

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition
Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition – Review
If you actually need to know what is originally going on with all the severe warnings about global warming ,you’ll be hard pressed to find a superior resource of information than in this book. The authors have deeply dissected every theory and fact on the subject and while there is evidence that the earth is warming up,it is a long term climatic cycle that has occurred many times in the past and will occur again in the future.

Global Warming in a Politically Correct Climate: How Truth Became Controversial
Global Warming in a Politically Correct Climate: How Truth Became Controversial – Review
Apparently many of the other individuals who wrote reviews for this book are completely fabricated by the author or written by very ignorant peoples. A simple constantly checking around reveals that the author Mihkel, has poorly received donations from Exxon-mobil – surpise, surprise he doesn’t believe C02 emissions start to global warming.
