Description: Unstoppable Global Warming by Fred S. Singer, Dennis Avery Singer and Avery present—in popular language supported by in-depth scientific evidence—the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle. Unstoppable Global Warming explains why were warming, why its not very dangerous, and why we cant stop it anyway. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Singer and Avery present—in popular language supported by in-depth scientific evidence—the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle. Using historic data from two millennia of recorded history combined with the natural physical records found in ice cores, seabed sediment, cave stalagmites, and tree rings, Unstoppable Global Warming argues that the 1,500 year solar-driven cycle that has always controlled the earths climate remains the driving force in the current warming trend. Trillions of dollars spent on reducing fossil fuel use would have no effect on todays rising temperatures. The public policy key, Singer and Avery propose, is adaptation, not fruitless attempts at prevention. Further, they offer convincing evidence that civilizations most successful eras have coincided with the cycles warmest peaks. With the added benefit of modern technology, humanity can not only survive global climate change, but thrive. Author Biography S. Fred Singer is a research fellow at The Independent Institute, president of the Science and Environmental Policy Project, and a distinguished research fellow at the Institute for Space Science and Technology. He was the first director of the U.S. Weather Satellite Service. He is the former director of the Center for Atmospheric and Space Physics, and former chief scientist, U.S. Department of Transportation. Review Singer and Avery present in popular language supported by in-depth scientific evidence the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle. Unstoppable Global Warming explains why were warming, why its not very dangerous, and why we cant stop it anyway. * Science Daily *Fred Singer and Dennis Avery highlight the many fallacies associated with the hysterical claims of dangerous climate change and unsubstantiated computer projections surrounding the theory of human caused global warming. They have managed to lay out, dissect, and expose the facts in a thoroughly readable style. Unstoppable Global Warming is a must read for everybody who is interested in the real issues surrounding climate change. -- William Kininmonth, Australasian Climate ResearchSinger and Avery skillfully present their case for the existence of a solar-induced 1,500 year cycle that generates warming and cooling of the Earths temperature irrespective of the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases. The authors even more skillfully argue the implications of their findings to the ongoing heated debate regarding the human contribution to observed and future changes in climate. -- Robert C. Balling, Jr., Arizona State UniversityFred Singer and Dennis Avery have put together an impressive collection of reasons to believe that global warming may not be as bad as some people are telling us—in other words, that natural variations, rather than human-emitted greenhouse gases, have tended to control climate. Their exhaustive list of scientific references, mostly from refereed journals, only underscores their statements. Bravo for a job well done! -- George H. Taylor, State Climatologist, Oregon Climate ServiceThis book is must reading for anyone concerned about global warming. The authors stress that "consensus" has no place in science, only hard-headed testing of speculation. Their testing of the earths erratic, moderate warming since 1850 leads them to the planets recently discovered—but already broadly studied—1500-year climate cycle. -- Frederick Seitz, former President, National Academy of SciencesReal science in, real science out. A masterpiece of understanding, dispelling the computer myths of manmade global warming. Please read this book. -- David Bellamy, Order of the British Empire, academic, author and host of British TV documentariesA wonderful new book. . . . meticulously researched and footnoted. * The Washington Times *...a thoughtful book by two respected scientists... * Shopfloor.Org *Recommended * CHOICE *This well written book is arguably the best book to date on the politics and science of global warming. * Hawaii Reporter *t is a very readable book that avoids scientific jargon and does not drown its major points in a flood of data, yet provides 449 references for anyone desiring to find and read the facts found and explained by international researchers. * Philadelphia Bulletin, October 4, 2009 *argues that climate change is part of a natural cycle, not man-made, and seeks to debunk dominant scientific consensus on global warming. * Sunday Star Ledger *. . . Highly recommended. * Albuquerque Journal *For those who would like to read the science rather than the politics of climate change I suggest Skinner and Averys Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years. * The Bellingham Herald *"I would like o recommend that the author of the letter read the following books which are chock full of data exposing the global-warming hoax: "Unstoppable Global Warming Every 1,500 years" by Fred Singer, a distinguished research professor at George Mason University…perhaps if the author of the letter were to read these books, he would understand the truth concerning the global warming hoax, rather than swallow the propaganda of the leftists who want to tax U.S industries into oblivion." * Pensacola News Journal * Long Description Singer and Avery present--in popular language supported by in-depth scientific evidence--the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle.
