Good basics on climate information
A reviewer, A reviewer, 06/06/2008
This book is worth anyone's time who wants to find out the most persuasive reasons for not panicking about 'global warming'. The author has done an outstanding job bringing many of the really knowledgeable scientists into the public arena. The salient facts are all there together with the expert's professional doubts where relevant. The result is indeed a picture that is the opposite of what the 'green' lobby, i.e. Al Gore want you to believe. We do not need to spend a fortune on efforts to mitigate a condition that is just not there. It is unfortunate that the author himself, after having done such a fine job, admits to not having an opinion of his own. In my experience, a book's author is generally expected to have an opinion. In this case he did not convince himself one way or another and stayed neutral. Then why write the book? May be Mr. Solomon limits himself to being a reporter, which is fine.
Also recommended: Unstoppable warming every 1500 years the Chilling Stars Climate Confusion Ecoscam The Cooling Mam-made global warming.

I agree that the scientists in this review present us correct data to why there is no Super Global warming. In fact today May 24th 2008 there is a White Out in Flagstaff Arizona which brings to mind a National Geographic article of the early 70's. I can remember reading something of a possible mini ice age and that the sun belt could move further south causing colder weather in states not used to the cold. The article went on to mention the Equator could move a few degrees a year during the next century. It is my opinion so many of these so called GREEN groups really worry about there funding dollars in form of grants, endowments etc. than the planet and all things on it. Anyone remember an article about the study of the TeSee Fly guess about 15+ years ago, or the thousands of dollars spent on that one? Lets not forget the subject of Carbon Offset garbage that Gore spews and sells and is making loads of dollars with such propaganda. We all can do our part to help keep our planet safe without hysteria or listening to those who do not practice what they preach. Wake up everyone volcanos and forest fire cause higher destruction than humans. We all need to believe in the higher power who controls all things of our Planet Earth and the natural order of it.
