"In Hot Talk, Cold Science, Fred Singer looks at the issue of climate change the way a physicist should. He asks probing questions and offers reasoned possibilities. He notes the obvious weaknesses that others too often ignore.... Fortunately, some like Dr. Singer still prefer the joys and value of scientific inquiry."

I pose many questions that I intentionally don't answer. I want you to do that. I want everyone reading this book to think about some of these concepts. This is about concepts for solutions long-term and sustainable. If we want our environment to once again flourish and our agriculture and development sectors to continue growing, we must develop a national water policy and let that guide us into the future.

If you are driving off a cliff, someone telling you to slow down isn't much of a help. (Well, slowing down while you turn in a new direction is likely to be a good idea.) By burning fossil fuels, humanity is now driving itself off a climate cliff toward extinction. We need to completely stop burning "stuff" (fossil fuels, or anything else) for energy. Yet to thrive we really do need lots of energy-in fact, even more than we now are using. This book...

Kulturell greift die Neuzeit im Abendland – nach Überwindung christlicher Dogmen – auf das Vorbild der Antike zurück, beginnt wieder zu forschen. Materiell setzt die Spätzeit Mensch und Natur in größerem Maßstab ein, ausbeutend und im Sinne zivilisatorischen Fortschritts und Wohlstands. Das technische Zeitalter der Römer wiederholen wir seit 250 Jahren im Abendland, geraten aber durch Wachstum an Grenzen, in einen nicht umkehrbaren Klimawandel....

"Como consecuencia del crecimiento del consumo de combustibles fósiles, las emisiones de dióxido de carbono aumentaron y aumentarán exponencialmente, y al mismo ritmo seguirán sus concentraciones en la atmósfera. El resultado es un calentamiento global que amenaza con la extinción de especies más devastadora de los últimos millones de años y que, de persistir por mucho tiempo, hará de la superficie de la Tierra algo muy distinto de lo que...

Author
Description
Today's "extreme weather events" (record-breaking heat waves, droughts, and melting ice caps) foreshadow an increasingly unstable and dire future. Yet, despite all, the US government continues to reject the Kyoto Protocol, to deny the catastrophic consequences of oil dependency, and to define the politics of oil as the politics of U.S. unilateralism, domination, and war.
Dead Heat argues that justice-not rhetoric and "aid" but real developmental justice...
