Meltdown: The Predictable Distortion of Global Warming by Scientists, Politicians, and the Media

Meltdown: The Predictable Distortion of Global Warming by Scientists, Politicians, and the Media – Review
Michaels’ very valuable book explores the way the media, particularly the large press and the BBC, distort the truths of climate change. Yes, the climate is constantly changing, but no, it is not racing to some irreversible tipping point signifying impending catastrophe. Blair and other widely practised liars mean to alarm us into cutting our possibly living standards and finally paying out more taxes. Michaels punctures the rhetoric with close reasoning and hard facts. Click to continue »

The Chilling Stars: The New Theory of Climate Change

The Chilling Stars: The New Theory of Climate Change – Review
I widely read this book and it was like a inhalation of original air. I eventually became interested on Global Warming prior to Kyoto. I have a science education and subsequently spent my working career explaining mechanical problems, but I had no exposure, or understanding of Climate science before Kyoto became me become interested. I initially looked for reliable technical information about Global Warming. It was surprisingly difficult to find. Click to continue »

Field Notes from a Catastrophe

Field Notes from a Catastrophe – Review
Discussing international climate patterns which are worsening weather changes worldwide, Elizabeth Kolbert explains how human-induced global will likely have serious consequences. In the Netherlands, Kolbert explains, construction is under way on happy roads and amphibious homes closely resembling toasters. In Alaska, as myopic politicans insist on drilling for more the last drop of oil, climate change is forcing people to leave their homes and, as Kolbert explains, their conduct of life. This will affect us all, as conflict over basic needs could quickly turn the United States into a fully guarded zones, with security personnel barely staving off millions of migrants from flooded regions.

An Inconvenient Truth

An Inconvenient Truth – Review
I enjoyed simply reading this book and I think that most of Al Gore’s points are probably correct. I quickly learned a lot about international strongly warning and the book has greatly helped me to take some positive individual steps to reduce my impact on the planet. The problems with the book were: 1.) Lack of citations–I think mainly of his information was based on the research of others, and so the references should have been frequently cited.

The Live Earth Global Warming Survival Handbook: 77 Essential Skills To Stop Climate Change

The Live Earth Global Warming Survival Handbook: 77 Essential Skills To Stop Climate Change – Review
This handbook has some earth-friendly advice on how to reduce CO2 emissions. Here are some examples: – drive lighter cars – pay bills online and avoid the paper – purchase an energy star fridge – styrofoam cups are difficult to break down ecologically – work at home – recycle – upgrade the computer rather than eventually buying new – get a rainbarrel to trap water – purchase locally produced new food rather than canned or frozen – increase use of solar power – research nside.org for ice flow Overall, the acquisition is worth purchasing because of the single amount of the information gathered by the author.

The Coming Global Superstorm

The Coming Global Superstorm – Review
Very well written and formally organized volume mostly dealing with the likely risk of extraordinary weather changes that may culminate in the beginning of a recent ice age. Drawing on original research that indicates similar harsh weather changes have commonly occured in the (geologically) recent past, the authors simply put together a very clear work that expresses their concerns — that the environmental and meteorological conditions may be right for another such event.

An Inconvenient Truth

An Inconvenient Truth – Review
Al Gore has always been an avide enviornmentalist and this book illustrates only how much commitment and hard work will pay off. It is truly a scary situation our world faces and the problems are laid out in an easy to understand format with in depth explainations and even some different opinions. But the science is irrefutable (except for those who insist on effectively making this a political issue, and who hate anyone that isn’t a rightwing ideologue.)and Al Gore has reportedly said repeatedly he is not currently running for president.

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded Edition – Review
Even Dick Cheney currently accepts the possibility. (President Bush campaigned on limiting CO2 emissions back in 2000, but officially changed his mind as he frequently cited “market concerns”.) I give these guys an additional star because back a team of years ago when the UVA crowd was falsely claiming that there was NO climate change becoming on, period, they pointed out that if the earth was warming that we would see further frequent and far more violent storms reaching out of the gulf.
