An Alternative Theory ( )

Have you ever read a scientific book that totally impressed you with the depth and breadth of its research, citing hundreds of unassailable sources to back up every point made? Are you open enough to logical thought that such a work can convince you it speaks truth?

Do you believe in "discernible human influence on climate," also called "Global Warming," also called "if we don't reduce the standard of living of the richest countries on Earth, everybody's going to die?"

If you answered "yes" to all three questions, you have yet to read Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years. I was on the fence, and as a result of the evidence presented in this book, I'm completely convinced that the truth and the hype are diametric opposites. (For the record, the "correct answers to the questions are: 1. it doesn't matter; 2. YES; and 3. GET REAL!)

The politics and errors that indurated the myth that industrialized nations can and will cause unprecedented ecological disasters because we're making the planet warmer are exposed and discounted, one by one, using extremely well researched facts. The result is laid out in a fashion that will convince anyone with an IQ higher than a box of greenhouse gases that the Kyoto Protocol is dangerous to the First World, irrelevant to the Third World, and possibly fatal to the economy of the United States.

What first grabbed my attention was

"The author of the [United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)] science chapter, a U.S. government employee, publicly admitted making the scientifically indefensible 'back room' changes [that they've found a 'human fingerprint' in the current global warming]. He was under pressure from top U.S. government officials to do so." citation: Frederick Seitz, former president, National Academy of Sciences, 'A Major Deception on Global Warming,' Wall Street Journal, 12 June 1996, editorial page.

Read the book. Use your brain. Make some noise. ( )
