Book Reviews of Climate Confusion: How Global Warming Hysteria Leads to Bad Science, Pandering Politicians and Misguided Policies that Hurt the Poor
Book Review: Telling the truth behind the Global Warming RELIGION
Summary: 5 Stars
As one person who believes we should reduce pollution for the betterment of our lives, but does not believe in the hysteria of Global Warming as the Al Gores of the media and entertainment believe, it is refreshing to FINALLY get a clear understanding of the this MADE-UP religion of lies and scare tactics na dbad political pandering.
I always knew from a young age that the environment and its system of controls will always balance out and that man, even though he has the power to alter his environment, does not have as significant an impact as is believed. To assume that we have that kind of power is placing humans on a even level with the universe or God if you want.
Roy Spencer takes the reader though a basic understanding of climate models and how they could never acurately model a complex system like the earths due to the shear fact of multiple variables that effect each other, regardless if science was able to model a single elemnt of the system preceisley. He ties the environmental movement to econmic greed and shows how thes environmentalists use gaining more money and power to push junk science and misinfomation to the public in the form of fear and ridicule.
Spencer tells the reader how most scientist actually believe that global climate change is not happeneing, but if they stray too far from the dogma, they are ostricized and shuned. He shows how entrenched the environmentalists are with the media, politics and educational system, and how with that power, they control what people hear and think.
This is a great read and easy for anybody to understand. I highly recommend this book and have done so already.
Book Review: Credibility
Summary: 5 Stars
Considering that he has a PhD and has been working with NASA for a long time, the author has high credentials, unlike Mr. Gore. He explains science is still in it's primitive state, that scientists have only scratched the surface. Therefore it is highly unlikely that CO2 can be the blame. The Earth contains far too many factors to consider. What he does explain though, is that nature has it's own check & balance. When CO2 increases, temperature increases a LITTLE, but this increases water vapor. Water vapor is the gas that will form cloud, which block out the sun. This in the process prevents the sun's UV light from entering the atmosphere and reflect back to the Earth continuously with infrared, thus negating the greenhouse effect. The author also shows acute understanding of economics, and how dangerous it is to fund hundreds of billions of dollars of our tax money to put scientists on a ghost chase for alternative energy. His work also provides graph and some humor to show how stupid your Gore worshiping friends are. After all, radical liberals don't need scientists when they have Al Gore. But I do have an energy conservation recommendation, let's keep Al Gore's private jet on the ground.Book Review: Inspiring and Needed
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. Roy Spencer is an atmospheric scientist whose wonderful voice has added much to the global warming debate. This is a brief primer on the nature of the battles whose outcome may soon cripple our economy and jeopardize our individual rights. I was excited about the prospects of reading it long before it got released. That the US is currently squandering billion of dollars for no provable reason is indicative of the type of hysteria that has taken hold over the minds of our elites. He, like the 500 Scientists the Heartland Institute published whose research refutes man-made global warming
[...]
is not a "global warming denier." He is a "man-made global warming" questioner which is a distinction that Al Gore does not acknowledge or appreciate. What's imperative is that we determine how much of our temperature fluctuations are caused by humanity, and, no, there is no "scientific consensus at this time." As Spencer jokes in Chapter One, if you want perfect measurements...take them only once.
While Climate Confusion is not long it debunks many myths. First and foremost, the "follow the money" trail leads to government and the side of the climate hysterics not to Big Oil which does not have the type of money the federocracy possesses (it takes in over 20 percent of our GDP on an annual basis). The Leviathan now funnels over $100 million each year to environmental lobbyists. I write this just after the hullabaloo over Hurricane Gustav and the author convincingly refutes the notion that hurricanes are a result of global warming. He notes that there have always been hurricanes which threatened the United States and will continue to be irrespective of fluctuations in temperature. I found his chapter, "How Weather Works," to be the one most educational. Much of it is inside baseball with which laymen like myself are fairly unfamiliar. Overall, this is a wonderfully entertaining book that provides solid arguments to wield against the enemies of capitalism and freedom.
Book Review: This is not a review rather just an opinion
Summary: 1 Stars
Sorry guys I dont know how to post a comment onto the first page of the book, or if there is any way to do so.
I just noticed how appallingly biased Amazon user community is towards climate change/global warming issue as I have looked around for information and found that books and reviews against climate change theory are overly praised while those for climate change theory are badly pulverized.
Peace,
Book Review: Follow the money
Summary: 5 Stars
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.
