Description
A thought-provoking look at the unsettled science of global warming-from a former volcanologist, geophysicist, and US Geological Survey scientist.
Thousands of scientists are convinced beyond any reasonable doubt that recent global warming is being caused by emissions of greenhouse gases and that we must act immediately to reduce these emissions or else we may render Earth unlivable for our children and grandchildren. Some even say "the science...

This sobering examination of climate-change and the disastrous effects of rising sea levels explains what must be done to avoid the worst outcomes. By the end of this century, hundreds of millions of people living at low elevations along coasts will be forced to retreat to higher and safer ground. Because of sea-level rise, major storms will inundate areas farther inland and will lay waste to critical infrastructure, such as water-treatment and energy...

"The warming of Earth's surface that has occurred since 1880 has been grossly over stated and attributed entirely to carbon dioxide, based on a preposterous assumption. That assumption is: All of the warming of earth's surface temperature during the last 140 years is due to accumulation of carbon dioxide and other minor greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere. The level of carbon dioxide has increased from 290 ppm to 411 ppm. That is an increase of 121...

A Rough Ride to the Future introduces two new Lovelockian ideas. The first is that three hundred years ago, when Thomas Newcomen invented the steam engine, he was unknowingly beginning what Lovelock calls "accelerated evolution," a process that is bringing about change on our planet roughly a million times faster than Darwinian evolution. The second is that as part of this process, humanity has the capacity to become the intelligent part of...

Would the proposed Climate Treaty solve a real environmental threat or would it create worldwide economic and social harm? S. Fred Singer is a distinguished astrophysicist who has taken a hard, scientific look at the evidence. In this new book, Dr. Singer explores the inaccuracies...

There has been a deliberate and orchestrated approach to promote the theory of human-made climate change initiated largely by the IPCC, which has created alarmist fears about climate and threats of global warming. All such predictions have been wrong and exaggerated and have used manipulated data to do this.
These claims have become a dominant theme in world politics aided by the vast funding available for so-called research but really for propaganda...

The book is in the vein of sketching out the characteristics of the "water planet" while taking a different look at the whole. Instead of addressing only one particular aspect (scientific-technological or social, for example), we preferred to consider all the links that water maintains with man and society, then outlining a series of "journeys ", each corresponding to each of the seven chapters that form the structure of the scripture. Very briefly,...

#1 The origins of the climate wars lie in the past climate wars, when the findings of science began to conflict with the agendas of powerful vested interests. These campaigns were aimed at obscuring public understanding of the underlying science and discrediting the scientific message.
#2 The late nineteenth century saw the birth of the science-denier-for-hire, in the...

This book makes the case that many climate related scientists have provided data that confirm that burning fossil fuels has increased greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, which has had a major impact on climate change. Each of the six chapters provides many references and questions for review.
The first chapter emphasizes worldwide awareness of the relationship between climate change and disasters in the Asia Pacific region. The following chapters...

We are used to hearing that the climate crisis is serious, but still tractable if we start acting on it soon. The reality is different. Things are going to get much worse, for a long time, whatever we now do — though hardly anyone wants to admit it. This book from the Green House collective offers climate honesty. The time for focusing primarily on mitigation is over. We now need to adapt to the dark reality of climate breakdown. But, this means...

I pose many questions that I intentionally don't answer. I want you to do that. I want everyone reading this book to think about some of these concepts. This is about concepts for solutions long-term and sustainable. If we want our environment to once again flourish and our agriculture and development sectors to continue growing, we must develop a national water policy and let that guide us into the future.
