Why I Wrote The Deniers
DrewHasselback
April 07, 2008
http://network.nationalpost.com/np/blogs/fpcomment/archive/2008/04/07/why-i-wrote-deniers-solomon.aspx
Lawrence Solomon, a regular contributor to the Financial Post and to
this blog, has just published The Deniers, a book that provides heft to
the claim that climate science is not settled. The Deniers (Richard
Vigilante Books) is available at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, and fine
bookstores near you.
An excerpt appeared in Saturday's Financial Post.
"Most laymen, most citizens, owe most of what we think we know about
global warming not to science directly, but to science as mediated by
the media and by political bodies, especially the UN and our
governments. We citizens, trying to discern what to do about global
warming, must judge not only the credibility of the scientists but of
those who claim to tell us what the scientists say."

9:46 AM I will buy and read this book. Today. Enough of the
pseudoscience perpetrated by Gore, Suzuki, et al.

2:45 PM Whenever you are faced with an argument postulating doom and
gloom from entrenched interests implying massive costs be paid to fix
the "problem", be skeptical, be very skeptical.

5:15 PM Hello Lawrence Solomon.
Congratulations on your getting your novel published, (did you have to
include the words global warming in the submission?  ).
If you are still game to do interviews, I'd like to nominate Ross
McKitrick for the role of interviewee. He has done as much as anyone to
put the brakes on the IPCC.

"Only the computer illiterate subscribe to control of temperature by
trace gases."

"Let me say it plainly: The environmental movement has been taken over
by anti-capitalist radicals who are using it to wage war against
capitalism and campaign for liberal Democrats. Protecting the
environment is now number three, or lower, on their list of priorities."
Joe Bast, President, Heartland Institute, One-time Ardent
Environmentalist, Has seen it from both sides. |
