Product Description
If you listen to the media, you would think that man-made environmental catastrophe was about to engulf the world and imperil civilization. From Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth to nightly jeremiads about CO2 emissions and carbon footprints, we are bombarded around the clock with alarmist reports that disasterous global warming is on the rise and that it's our fault. In Climate Confusion, noted climatologist Roy Spencer shows that fears about global warming are vastly exaggerated and are driven by politics, not truth. He shows that a global superstorm has already arrived-but it is a storm of hype and hysteria. Climate Confusion is a ground-breaking book that combines impeccable scientific authority with great wit and literary panache to expose the hysteria surrounding the myths of global warming and climate change. Spencer shows that the earth is far more resilient than exopessimists pretend and that increasing wealth and technology ingenuity, far from being the enemies of the environment, are the only means we possess to solve environmental problems as they arise.

 This is not a review rather just an opinion, 2008-09-03
Sorry guys I dont know how to post a comment onto the first page of the book, or if there is any way to do so.
I just noticed how appallingly biased Amazon user community is towards climate change/global warming issue as I have looked around for information and found that books and reviews against climate change theory are overly praised while those for climate change theory are badly pulverized.
Peace,

 Follow the money, 2008-08-31
Nice to see the author refute claims that he is "biased by money". ...Not that being "Government funded" means "unbiased".
On that point, someone...somewhere...should point out that the side making the doomsday claims about global warming is the one getting the money. Billions of dollars have already been spent by the U.S government on this research...and the best way to get your hands on that money is by scaring the crap out of Congress/the media.
What scientist is really going to say "This is really exaggerated" when that would mean jeopardizing your job? I'll paraphrase Al Gore from "An Inconvenient Truth": "Never trust a someone to see the truth when their job depends on them NOT seeing the truth". Al didn't know how right he was. I guess he didn't think we would find which side is really getting all the money.

Global Warming , fact or myth, 2008-08-27
This is a very well written book that is easy to read and understand by the average person that is not educated in weather. This book gives facts about weather and related subjects by informed professionals that don't have a political agenda and want to know the truth.
Thanks for this book.

Clamate Confusion, 2008-08-25
Easy reading analysis of a very complex situation. The message is very enlightening - "manmade global warming is a hoax".
I recommend this book who is truly interested in facts about our climate and its effect on the planet.

Clear and concise, 2008-08-22
Spencer takes a confusing topic, shakes out all the hyperbole and whittles down the junk...until a clear and concise explanation of the climate, weather patterns and motives from those who are so shrill on this topic become clear. This country is headed for hard times if we continue to ride the "Man-Made global warming train" to disaster. Whenever someone on the radio, TV or in print states, "this 'such and such' is a fact agreed upon by everyone"..then I'll KNOW it isn't true! Good read, even funny at times. Sobering for sure. If you still have an open mind this book is for you.
