Man made global warming fails the scientific test

This book is written by a Canadian Environmental Activist who wanted to know why leading scientists kept denying man-made global warming so he interview a number of them for his column. In every case, they have good solid reasons why the IPCC ignores the lack of science that they address in the fields in which they are the very top experts in the world. For example, the "Hockey Stick" graph showing dramatic warming recently is based upon statistical formulas that do not stand up to analysis by a real statistics expert. They produce the same result 99% of the time with random data. Good, easy read and well documented.

refreshing viewpoint

There are such a lot of strong opinions about global warming. It is refreshing to get an alternate viewpoint - the author is an involved environmental advocate who is at the same time concerned about the science and objectivity. He does a good job of presenting credible dissenting views from the now popular storyline - where man being the main cause of global warming - is presented as a certainty, in spite of substantial evidence questioning this certainty. The scientists whose views are presented are leaders in their respective fields and acknowledged experts in various aspects of the global warming debate. Their basic appeal is for honesty and forthrightness in looking at the facts and the whole question of global warming, so that we can properly address the issues. No one benefits from either stridency or twisting scientific analysis to support a personal or political agenda - the very nature of the scientific effort is to seek to understand the processes, and to help assess what impacts may be. When analysis is twisted to present a skewed picture of what is taking place, it helps no one. Instead we should be attempting to assemble an accurate picture of what environmental forces are at work, and to determine both what the risks actually are, and what options we may have to address them. Much of current activism seems to be driven by the fear (of the not so distant future effects) of man-caused global warming. The feeling is that if we will only take immediate and strong action, we can prevent the worst from happening (sea levels rising, increasing disruptions of weather patterns, and continued poisoning of our natural resources). But what if the global warming that we are currently experiencing is just a natural phenomenon, and the linkage of CO2 accumulation with global warming is not true? If we knew that to be the case, how would that affect our current actions? The fact that our energy supplies are limited, and that we face an incredible growth of demand is a real challenge that we must address with vision and courage. The need to responsibly manage our global resources, including reducing pollution and creating a sustainable approach to all that we do is needed and commendable. It is really just in the area of the global warming debate where it is important for us to figure out whether we really have a problem, so that we can muster public opinion and resources behind a clear plan of action (if one is needed).
The book is very readable and credible, and is well worth being read, no matter what side of the global warming debate you may be on. Highly recommended.

A must for every thinking citizen

L. Solomon's pleadings for a rational approach to global warming should really be a must for every citizen and, especially, for all teachers and their pupils. A well written, scientifically backed summary of the recent knowledge about climate change (if there is any...).

Debunking the Fossil Fuel Caused Global Warming Scam

This book is excellent in shining the light of day onto the scam of claims that fossil fuel combustion is causing warming of the Earth. This scam was primarily perpetrated in this country by the Hollywood movie "An Inconvenient Truth", earning one of it's Producers, A. Gore, millions of dollars by his dealings in "carbon credits" through his brokerage firm. It reveals how if the US signs the Kyoto Treaty (setting worldwide allotments on carbon emissions) it could raise our taxes by 1000%. The many world reknown scientists (the "Deniers") interviewed for the book by its author, Lawrence Solomon, discuss their verified scientific data showing, among other things, that: carbon dioxide from fossil fuel combustion only accounts for less than 1% of Global Warming Greenhouse Gases . . . the oceans absorb and release most of the carbon dioxide of the atmosphere to maintain a ratio of 50 to 1 of carbon dioxide in the oceans to that in the atmosphere . . . the method used to determine the "movie" historical atmospheric carbon dioxide content was seriously flawed . . . historical records properly analyzed show rises in atmospheric carbon dioxide following rises in temperature . . . our present apparent warming cycle is quite natural and caused by an increased Sun energy output . . . and, warmer temperatures are much more beneficial to mankind than cooler temperatures, by decreasing mortality and increasing food production. These are only some of the conclusions presented in the book, which on the surface perhaps appears too complex and scientific for the non-technical reader, but through a clean narrative manner and a few simple, clear, tables and graphical presentations, it is quite a compelling book for most readers. For the technically oriented who are interested in exploring the facts and proofs of the books conclusions, Mr. Solomon presents an amazing 377 clarifying Endnotes, containing hundreds of sources for substansiating and explanatory data . . . as well as an Index of the Global Warming "Players".
