Thoughts on the Book “Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1500 Years”
People have different opinions on what is causing global warming. In the past, the focus was on whether global warming was really happening or not. Now that the world leaders and the masses have been presented with irrefutable evidence that global warming is definitely happening, it seems there are still those who refuse to take some of the responsibility for what is happening in and to our planet today.
The authors of the book are Fred Singer and Dennis Avery. They are members of the nature-taking-its-course group. Though the earth has cycles in which the climate can change such as a new ice age or the natural effect of nature and global warming, if you look at the rapid rate that global warming has spread during the last century, you can’t help but see that man has had much to do with the acceleration we are seeing now.
The authors seek to reassure the readers that global warming is unstoppable, and has nothing to do with mankind. They try to convince the reader that this is a natural cycle that occurs every fifteen years or so. They also go on to say that this is not a dangerous process and it too shall pass.
Though you may not agree with the author’s opinions, it is always good to arm yourself with knowledge. Being informed of facts regarding global warming myths can actually help, as you may be able to convince the naysayer when they see the real facts in black and white.
The book is bound to be popular reading for those oil tycoons and cynical others who say we are all worrying for naught. But even those in the green community should give it a read to see what the other side thinks and why.
