Book Reviews of Hell and High Water: Global Warming--the Solution and the Politics--and What We Should Do

Book Review: Can you say consensus? Is the debate really over?
Summary: 2 Stars

Having just read Joseph Romm's book and, earlier, other global warming and climate change alarmist books, I've been assured by Romm and others that the case has already been decided. In case you missed it, as I had, the debate has been held, and there is no need for further discussion. Anyone who disagrees is a denier (as in denying the Holocaust) and should be subjected to Nuremberg-style trials. Consensus. (You're a meteorologist and you don't believe in man-made global warming? You should be fired!) Slam dunk for climate change and global warming, right? No! In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. There is no such thing as consensus in science and there never will be. Scientific method precludes consensus. Like the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age that followed, the current very mild warming period is cyclical--always has been, always will be and it has nothing to do with man-made global warming. Nothing! The global warming alarmist/Kyoto scam scare is nothing less than a brazen attempt by the UN and--especially--pathologically jealous European globalists/interventionists to bring America down to the primitive energy level of the rest of the world. Which is exactly where we will be, and deserve to be, if we fall for such snake oil scams. If you want the real unvarnished truth about global warming/climate change/the Kyoto scam, read The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming and Environmentalism by Christopher C. Horner. The truth about global warming is only one book away...and it shall set you free.
