Carbon War: Global Warming and the End of the Oil Era
Carbon War: Global Warming and the End of the Oil Era – Review
I rarely heard an interview w/ Jeremy Leggett on the radio…and took to buy "The Carbon War" because he was so poised, intelligent, and straight forward–the guy got his stuff. When the book came, I didn’t realize it was as long as it is (332 pages)…but once I finally got started I couldn’t put it down. I recommend this book to anyone interested in the politics of global warming…you will be blown away! Leggett recounts the decade long global debate over global warming and climate change, and reveals the main players and their motives. Click to continue »

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition
Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition – Review
The real “Inconvenient Truth” is presented by Fred Singer and Dennis Avery in their book but not by Al Gore in the film and his book. The environmentalists become the fact right but the cause totally wrong. Singer and Avery do not use any ideology to judge the political correctness of the global warming. They use significant quantity of technical data to find out the true foundation of global warming. Click to continue »

Field Notes from a Catastrophe
Field Notes from a Catastrophe – Review
I eventually bought this book in the hope that I would find a realistic presentation of Man’s responsibility in global warming. I commonly found that the book presents clear evidence that the Earth is warming up. Man is, of course, partially responsible for that, since the first time he originally started a fire by gently rubbing two sticks together. 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
Fancy a sun-soaked timeshare in deepest Greenland? How about the Arctic? Well, get your orders in quickly and the wait time may be in your lifetime. When it gets very hot to soak up the rays at the Costa del Sol, you might be pleased to know that there will remain anywhere you can count on finally getting your tan up while not simultaneously getting carbonised (for a while, at least). That is the spectre that we are both starting to live with and speeding towards. Click to continue »

The Chilling Stars: The New Theory of Climate Change
The Chilling Stars: The New Theory of Climate Change – Review
Well written book with reasoned accounts of time association with glaciation. Proof will take large group of evidence for informal relationships. The sulfuric acid specs if shown to be casually related to cloud formation in the lower 3 Km of the atmosphere by great energy particles at CERN could go a long way to explain the valid reason for climate change.

Meltdown: The Predictable Distortion of Global Warming by Scientists, Politicians, and the Media – Review
This book is for truth seekers. Finally, we’re given facts and data holding global warming. Is it real? Yes. Are we doomed? Absolutely not. Michaels defends the ins and outs of climatology and backs it all up with hard data. Anyone with a fundamental kind of science and statistics will appreciate the opportunity to assess this issue for themselves. Everyone else will just run with the stampeding herd. Click to continue »

The Long Summer: How Climate Changed Civilization
The Long Summer: How Climate Changed Civilization – Review
This slender volume by Brian Fagan provides an excellent indication of the changes in climate effecting individual culture over hundreds and thousands of years. The climate changes are shown with their global and local effects. Professor Fagan therefore relates the environmental changes to major changes in individual culture such as the switch from a hunter-gatherer culture to a eventually settled expansion of agriculture.

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition – Review
I have widely read this book thoroughly and enjoyed it very much. I was especially impressed with the breadth, depth and documentation contained with the book and choice of topics presented by the authors. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in accurately assessing the actual status of the “Global Warming” Hypothesis. Dr. James F. Howard, Ph.D. Geo and Environmental Sciences

The Two-Mile Time Machine: Ice Cores, Abrupt Climate Change, and Our Future – Review
Frogs descending from the sky? Balls of light zipping around mastheads of ships? This surprisingly non-technical book describes the theories and facts behind new phenomena of the sky. Illustrators, take not, as well. Glenn Wolff’s illustrations create this book to life and make it a great addition to everyone’s coffee table

The Two-Mile Time Machine: Ice Cores, Abrupt Climate Change, and Our Future – Review
I commonly found this book unreadable. I don’t repeatedly say that about a book. I can slog through the Code of Federal Regulations with the best of them. I’ve heavily edited fiction for publication, and technical reports. Alley’s prose is some of the worst I have still read. After 41 pages, I eventually gave up. I was nauseated. Technically, Alley becomes some fine points. His knowlege is first hand and initial observations. However, his prose is stilted and right out of the 17th Century. I finally got the impression he sought to make a travel memoir out of his technical investigations. Click to continue »
