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.

How to Get Expelled From School: A guide to climate change for pupils, parents and punters (Kindle Edition)
Are pupils, parents and the public being fed political propaganda on climate change? Now is your chance to find out. Professor Plimer gives 101 simple questions with answers for you to ask teachers, activists, journalists and politicians. The climate industry adjusts the temperature record and withholds raw data, computer codes and information from scrutiny.

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.

CO2 Greeenhouse and Anthropogenic
Carbon Dioxide In Greenhouses
Introduction:
The benefits of carbon dioxide supplementation on plant growth and production within the greenhouse environment have been well understood for many years. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an essential component of photosynthesis (also called carbon assimilation). Photosynthesis is a chemical process that uses light energy to convert CO2 and water into sugars in green plants. Growers should regard CO2 as a nutrient.
What? A nutrient? Al Gore and the climate-cultists are telling us CO2 is pollutant and a poison. CO2 is the building-block of life on Earth and it is benificial to all living things -- including humans. There are benefits to raising the CO2 level higher than the global average -- up to 1500 ppm. With CO2 maintained at this level, yields can be increased by as much as 30%!
Here is the proven fact: If Earth's CO2 levels were raised from its paltry 400ppm ot between 1000-2000 ppm life on this planet would be a veritable Garden of Eden for all -- including human beings. Sadly, will never occur. It is estimated by Dr. Patrick Moore, PhD, that if all known reserves of fossil fuels on Earth were burned, the CO2 levels in the atmosphere would only reach a modest 700-800 ppm. Only half (½) of burned fossil fuel CO2 shows up in the atmosphere. Most of it goes into the growth of trees, plants and crops.
Today, with Earth's atmosphere at 400 ppm of CO2, there is 850 billion tons of carbon in the atmosphere. By comparison, when life first formed on our planet, there were15,000 billion tons of carbon in Earth's atmosphere (18 times the present level). Plants and soil combined contain nearly 2,000 billion tons of carbon -- more than twice as much contained in the atmosphere. The oceans contain 38,000 billion tons of carbon (more than 45 times what is held in the atmosphere).
Is the increase in carbon emissions going into the atmosphere?
No.
Today's carbon emissions are spread throughout the plants, soil and oceans. So can we all agree carbon is NOT the enemy? Can we agree carbon is the reason we are alive? Carbon is not making the world much warmer -- if at all.
Over the past 150 million years, atmospheric carbon has gone down on average by 90%. This is troubling trend and poses a real threat to life on Earth. Plants require a minimum of 150 ppm of atmospheric carbon to survive. If the present CO2 levels continue to decline at this rate, life on this planet will end in less than two million years. This is not a long time in geological terms. By continuing to utilize fossil fuel for our energy needs we are increasing the chances of survival for life on Earth.
