Climate Change: A Natural Hazard by William Kininmonth. When we take a long view, from many decades to centuries, it is important to understand that there are natural fluctuations in climate system. The warming trend of the recent century is not unusual, although a colder climate has been a more persistent characteristic during the past few million years.
Why Carbon Fuels Will Dominate The 21st Century's Global Energy Economy by Peter R. Odell. Global energy demand has grown only slowly since the mid-1970s. This is predicated to continue, even without actions to limit/reduce CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, increasing energy use is required to eliminate energy poverty, not only for the 2 to 3 billion of the world's present population which suffer from the condition, but also for the net additional 3 billion inhabitants of planet earth by 2050. Sustainability for a more populous 21st century world depends on this development.
The Green Myth Economic Growth and the Quality of the Environment by Marian Radetzki. Does economic activity necessarily harm the environment? "No" is Professor Radetzki's uncompromising answer - in fact, quite the opposite! This book challenges the common belief that economic growth constitutes an insurmountable threat to the environment.
Man-Made Global Warming: Unravelling a Dogma by Hans Labohm, Simon Rozendaal & Dick Thoenes. These three Dutchmen - respectively an international relations expert, a scientific journalist, and a chemical engineer (past chairman of the Royal Netherlands Chemical Society) - form part of that growing body of reasonable and qualified people who feel unease at the claims of 'scientific consensus' on climate change, and wonder at the policies flowing from those claims. If the science is flawed, plainly the policies are too. Worldwide, billions of public money will be mis-spent, ..., these three authors are well-placed to point up the weaknesses in the scientific argument that global warming is a man-made phenomenon
The Greenhouse Delusion A Critique of "Climate Change 2001" by Dr Vincent Gray. Has gray identified a 'Black Hole' into which millions of public money and future research is being poured?
