About this product

Product Information

Global warming: the Left's last best chance to gain a stranglehold on our political system and economy For decades, environmentalism has been the Left's best excuse for increasing government control over our actions in ways both large and small. It's for Mother Earth It's for the children It's for the whales But until now, the doomsday-scenario environmental scares they've trumped up haven't been large enough to justify the lifestyle restrictions they want to impose. With global warming, however, greenhouse gasbags can argue that auto emissions in Ohio threaten people in Paris, and that only global governance (Jacques Chirac's words) can tackle such problems. Now, in The Politically Incorrect Guide(tm) to Global Warming and Environmentalism, Christopher C. Horner tears the cover off the Left's manipulation of environmental issues for political purposes--and lays out incontrovertible evidence for the fact that catastrophic man-made global warming is just more Chicken-Little hysteria, not actual science. He explains why, although Al Gore and his cronies among the media elites and UN globalists endlessly bleat that global warming is an unprecedented global crisis, they really think of it as a dream come true. It's the ideal scare campaign for those who hate capitalism and love big government. For, as Horner explains, if global warming really were as bad as the Leftist doomsayers insist it is, then no policy imaginable could solve it. According to the logic of the greens' own numbers, no matter how much we sacrifice there would still be more to do. That makes global warming the bottomless well of excuses for the relentless growth of big government. Horner (an attorney and senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute) reveals the full anti-American, anti-capitalist, and anti-human agenda of today's environmentalists, dubbing them green on the outside, red to the core. He details how they use strong-arm legal tactics--and worse--against those who dare to point out the weakness of their arguments for global warming. Along the way, he explodes ten top global warming myths, carefully examining the evidence to determine how much warming there really is and what is actually causing it. He exposes the lies that the environmental lobby routinely tells to make its case; the ways in which it is trying to impose initiatives such as the Kyoto Protocol on an unwilling American public; and much more--including the green lobby's favorite politicians (John Kerry, John McCain, Joe Lieberman, and others). It's time to stand up to the environmentalist industry and insist: human beings are not the enemy. In breezy, light-hearted, and always entertaining fashion, The Politically Incorrect Guide(tm) to Global Warming and Environmentalism gives you the facts you need to do so.

    Great title for the book. Yes, the heresy of dismissing climate change.

    Consensus is that supposedly all scientists agree that climate change is due to man. Hogwash, and this book points the way.

  • The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming

    The book lays out a very clear analysis of what is really happening with our planet, expectations of potential things to come and where the uncertainty can mislead many into thinking we're on a collision course with hell. While the P.I.G. has lots of anti-PC things in it - as is very well should - it gets to the heart of what the fear mongers like Heidi Cullen of the Weather Channel and Mr. Al Gore have been BS'ing everyone for years. Yes, the planet is a little warmer (less than a degree) warmer now than in decades past. YEs, the planet is in a cycle now. No, we're not going to burn up. No, S. Florida won't be under water in a couple years. The book is a good read for anyone willing to have an open mind on the topic, that hasn't been clouded by the BS Al Gore has been spewing for ...

  • extremist view countering another possibly extreme view

    i learned a few things from it. this coming from an environmentalist. but in large part it is an extremist's response(use energy freely to support our economy & lifestyle) to another possibly extreme view(we'll be under water in a few decades). even if you are not concerned about the fate of polar bears and about ice caps melting, we all should be very worried about the air we breathe TODAY and maintaining status quo on our energy use is not wise either. the author could have conveyed the same message in 3 chapters, without having to go after every word uttered by gore and everything printed the new york times.

  • This should be required reading in our schools!

    At last! The truth of global warming (formerly known as global cooling) is finally told. Corporations, government agencies and control freaks want to run your life by making you feel guilty. Read about the new greens called 'watermelons,' green on the outside, red to the core! Conservation is GOOD and saves you money... there is no reason to suffer from it, as the watermelons want you, too. PROOF is documented.

  • Super Book wish I had read it earlier. Wow, Wow, Wow

    This is a powerful book that explains the fraud of Climate Change politics. This along with the book Red Hot Lies gives a good picture of this fraud. It could cost Americans millions of jobs and billions of dollars in additional energy costs and associated taxes and fees if the Cap and Trade legislation is enacted.
