Read Any Good Books Lately?
Heaven and Earth: Global Warming, the Missing Science by Prof.Dr. Ian Plimer (Amazon Kindle)
Climate, sea level, and ice sheets have always changed, and the changes observed today are less than those of the past. Climate changes are cyclical and are driven by the Earth’s position in the galaxy, the sun, wobbles in the Earth’s orbit, ocean currents, and plate tectonics. In previous times, atmospheric carbon dioxide was far higher than at present but did not drive climate change.

Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist's Guide to Global Warming by Bjorn Lomborg (Amazon Kindle)
Bjorn Lomborg argues that many of the elaborate and staggeringly expensive actions now being considered to meet the challenges of global warming ultimately will have little impact on the world’s temperature. He suggests that rather than focusing on ineffective solutions that will cost us trillions of dollars over the coming decades, we should be looking for smarter, more cost-effective approaches that will allow us to deal not only with climate change but also with other pressing global concerns, such as malaria and HIV/AIDS. And he considers why and how this debate has fostered an atmosphere in which dissenters are immediately demonized.

False Alarm: How Climate Change Panic Costs Us Trillions, Hurts the Poor, and Fails to Fix the Planet (Kindle Edition)
The New York Times-bestselling "skeptical environmentalist" argues that panic over climate change is causing more harm than good
Politicians, activists, and the media espouse a common message: climate change is destroying the planet, and we must take drastic action immediately to stop it. Children panic about their future, and adults wonder if it is even ethical to bring new life into the world.
Enough, argues bestselling author Bjorn Lomborg. Climate change is real, but it's not the apocalyptic threat that we've been told it is.

The Skeptical Environmentalist: Measuring the Real State of the World (Kindle Edition)
The Skeptical Environmentalist challenges widely held beliefs that the environmental situation is getting worse and worse. The author, himself a former member of Greenpeace, is critical of the way in which many environmental organisations make selective and misleading use of the scientific evidence.

The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels by Alex Epstein (Amazon Kindle)
Could everything we know about fossil fuels be wrong?
For decades, environmentalists have told us that using fossil fuels is a self-destructive addiction that will destroy our planet. Yet at the same time, by every measure of human well-being, from life expectancy to clean water to climate safety, life has been getting better and better.

The Carbon Hoax: A Story: Ruling the World With a Big Lie (Kindle Edition) by Howell Woltz
“Did you know the Greatest Two-Year Global Cooling Event Just Took Place?,” read the headlines in Real Clear Markets back in mid-2018, but a tree may as well have fallen in an uninhabited forest.
Complete silence from the mainstream media over what should have been the greatest announcement in modern history—since being told by Left-Wing politicians “we have only 12 years to live”—and three of them are up already. The news that we are not burning to a crisp, and in fact, temperatures are reversing at rates not seen in a century, should have been 24/7 breaking news. NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies also released its report showing temperature declines as great as an unprecedented .56 degrees C in just one period, yet the press remains silent to this day. When Al Gore, spends $8.875 Million on his beachfront mansion, and Barack Obama, spends $11.75 million on his ‘vacation house’ on Martha’s Vineyard, even they are admitting the Hoax is at an end.
