Follow the money

Nice to see the author refute claims that he is "biased by money". ...Not that being "Government funded" means "unbiased".

On that point, someone...somewhere...should point out that the side making the doomsday claims about global warming is the one getting the money. Billions of dollars have already been spent by the U.S government on this research...and the best way to get your hands on that money is by scaring the crap out of Congress/the media.

What scientist is really going to say "This is really exaggerated" when that would mean jeopardizing your job? I'll paraphrase Al Gore from "An Inconvenient Truth": "Never trust a someone to see the truth when their job depends on them NOT seeing the truth". Al didn't know how right he was. I guess he didn't think we would find which side is really getting all the money.

Global Warming , fact or myth

This is a very well written book that is easy to read and understand by the average person that is not educated in weather. This book gives facts about weather and related subjects by informed professionals that don't have a political agenda and want to know the truth.

Thanks for this book.

Well written, easy to understand, and credible. A MUST READ

This is a book that should be read by all American adults. In fact, it should be read in High School science classes, as we've gone very wrong -- and only recently -- about how our society views science.

It's sad a fact of history that religion and politics often trump scientific fact. This caused the Dark Ages in Western Europe. It caused China of the Marco Polo era to regress into a backward nation. In a scant century or two, Islamic nations fell from a huge lead in science and medicine, to backwards, warring, tribes and clans. And it's possible they may never recover.

Up until 1995, an agency of Congress -- the well-respected Office of Technology Assessment -- existed to deliver competent, objective, non-partisan science advice, hopefully BEFORE Members of Congress would vote on legislation or take public positions on important scientific issues. That's how it used to work. Several nations around the world copied this, but we abolished it without warning, allegedly for "cost savings."

The sad truth is that both parties, each for its own reasons, now prefer to not be constrained by real science. We're turning away from science as a society, and history has not been kind to nations that chose that path.

It was technology and informed policy that made historians call the 20th Century "The American Century." Are we turning away from what made us great? Let's just say that the cults and political factions forming around science based issues like Global Warming and Creationism (remember the Scopes Monkey trial of the 1930s?) are not encouraging.

Is this trend too late to stop? I honestly don't know, but both "Global Warming" and "Creationism" are now widely accepted by the American public, and I'd argue this falling into ignorance does not bode well for our sons and daughters.

Right now, the critical issue for America is energy policy. For the long term, we need alternate energy sources. For the medium term, we need to find more oil and develop better sources of supply. For the short term, we need real science and to let the market run its course.

Because of Mr. Gore's widely accepted misinformation -- he invented the Internet, you know -- we are making bad decisions and bungling our future. This book is a good way for Americans to return to real science about Global Warming. Whatever your party or views, I think it is a must-read.

Clamate Confusion

Easy reading analysis of a very complex situation. The message is very enlightening - "manmade global warming is a hoax".

I recommend this book who is truly interested in facts about our climate and its effect on the planet.

Clear and concise

Spencer takes a confusing topic, shakes out all the hyperbole and whittles down the junk...until a clear and concise explanation of the climate, weather patterns and motives from those who are so shrill on this topic become clear. This country is headed for hard times if we continue to ride the "Man-Made global warming train" to disaster. Whenever someone on the radio, TV or in print states, "this 'such and such' is a fact agreed upon by everyone"..then I'll KNOW it isn't true! Good read, even funny at times. Sobering for sure. If you still have an open mind this book is for you.
