An Appeal to Reason a cool look at global warming

In this counter-attack on Al Gore and others who campaign on global warming, Nigel Lawson argues that science is only part of the story. He believes that for governments to make informed decisions about the path ahead they must listen to economists as well as scientists and ask what the most cost-effective method of tackling the issue is.

  • ""Clear, analytical and compelling." -The Economist In this well-informed and hard-hitting response to the scaremongering of the climate alarmists, Nigel Lawson, former Secretary of State for Energy under Margaret Thatcher, argues that it is time for us to take a cool look at global warming. Lawson carefully and succinctly examines all aspects of the global warming issue: the science, the economics, the politics, and the ethics. He concludes that the conventional wisdom on the subject is suspect on a number of grounds, that global warming is not the devastating threat to the planet it is widely alleged to be, and that the remedy that is currently being proposed, which is in any event politically unattainable, would be worse that the threat it is supposed to avert. Argued with logic, common sense, and even wit, and thoroughly sourced and referenced, Lawson has written a long overdue corrective to the barrage of spin and hype to which the politicians and media have been subjecting the public on this important issue."@en
  • "Argues against the conventional ideology regarding global warming, stating that "solutions" and "remedies" such as green protectionism create more harm than support for the cause and the global economy."@en
