The Politically Incorrect Guide to Climate Change (The Politically Incorrect Guides) Paperback – Illustrated, February 26, 2018

This excellent book is basically comprised of two parts. In the first part (Ch. 1-10 & 12) the author debunks (by copious citations to scientific authorities) the populist allegations of “global warming”, and in particular any anthropogenic (i.e., “human-caused”) contribution thereto. In the second part (Ch. 11 & 13-20) the author reveals (mostly by citations to “climate advocates” themselves) the underlying political agenda and financial motivations of the “climate advocates”.As I see it, the agenda of the author (Marc Morano) is to inform the public about an important topic by providing them with important information which has essentially been previously withheld from them (for reasons that are apparent once one reads Chs. 13 20).This book is a masterpiece of research – Morano cites to a truly vast number of individuals in the scientific community in order to undermine the claims of the “climate advocates”, and to reveal their true motives. To his credit, Morano does not proceed from the position of trying to support a hypothesis, but rather from the position of debunking the hypothesis of the climate advocates (i.e., that global warming is caused by human activity). Morano is to be commended for refraining from hyperbole, sarcasm and personal attacks in his presentation – his only attacks are on the so-called “science” used by the climate advocates, as well as on the motivations of the climate advocates.A number of things become very clear from this book: (1) climate science is exceedingly complex, and it’s fair to say that no one really understands all of the variables that lead to climate change, let alone how they work and interact; (2) the case for “human-caused global warming” has clearly NOT been made by the climate advocates; and (3) the large amount of government money available to support the global-warming hypothesis has (and continues to) corrupt the scientific community in favor of this dubious hypothesis. What is also evident (from casual observation) is that, notwithstanding much recent evidence that “human-caused global warming” cannot be proven (e.g., the faulty “hockey-stick” temperature chart), the climate advocates (such as Al Gore, the UN IPCC and their minions) have done such a good job of brainwashing the public since the 1990’s that by now it’s virtually impossible to convince people that it was all just a big con job. It’s now time to reverse that trend, and reading this book is a good way to start.My only “complaint” (if you can call it that) about this book is that it’s not longer. Morano could have easily filled 200 pages of appendices with graphs, data and other science-based information in order to show that the “science” used by “climate advocates” is bunk. Perhaps he could be persuaded to issue a compendium to this wonderful book in order to provide some more science to show where and how the climate advocates got it wrong in their so-called “science”.People should care a great deal about debunking the “human-caused global warming” myth since maintaining the myth will cost them lots of money - money which could be used otherwise for truly meritorious purposes (such as addressing over-fishing and over-population).If you truly care about our planet, then buy copies of this book and give them to your friends and family (as have I). Once you see your winter heating bill double from $300 a month to $600 in order to replace natural gas with “wind energy”, you will find that $17 for a copy of this book (to put a halt to this nonsense) is a mere pittance. Let’s set the record straight, and free ourselves from the “human-caused global warming” myth.

As an engineer I am not much different than a scientist. I was recently doing a lot of research to find factual data to understand if Climate Change is created by humans. Why my sudden drive to research this topic? Basically I have been forming a mistrust in what I read and listen to these days and it is getting worse daily due to the hysteria if you question a pro-climate change idea. One of the most famous lines I hear is that "All scientists agree that man made climate change exists..". I felt like I was being force fed information and if I questioned the headlines, then I am ridiculed. This attitude makes me want to learn more. This book, jam packed with solid references, made me a non-believer in climate change. In fact, I now believe that the man made climate change hysteria is one of the most significant scams ever concocted. The second question I asked was: Why would anyone even make up a story like this? What is the motive? What is to be gained? The answers to climate change questions like that and many more are found in this book. Every claim in the book is backed with solid references. I have an open mind and could be persuaded to be a believer in man made climate change - but me the data. So far I only get ridiculed when I speak with facts as a "crazy non-believer". Try looking on Amazon for books with supporting scientific data that supports Climate Change... Few and far between, and cost 10X as much and the numerous other books that provide scientific data similar to that supported in this book... Hmmm,, Interesting. And when you look in inside the other books it is pretty bleak with supporting scientific data references.

If you are wondering what the record breaking high temperatures are, this book will tell you. If you are wondering if Scientists are actually in agreement with the anthropogenic climate change theory, you will find their footnoted testimony here. If you are wondering what the effect will be if we reduce all our greenhouse gasses, this book will inform you. If you are tired of being told that Climate Change is man made, without any real evidence beyond the Rooster crowing before the sun comes up makes the sun come up, you will find solace in this book. Great read anytime. Easy to digest chapters, and tons of real numbers and scientific data to encourage intelligent debate. Anybody remember Climate-gate? It was a doosey.

This book is certainly comprehensive. The writing style is sometimes hard to follow because it intertwines quotes with Morano's discourse. At times he leaves you to draw your own conclusions about a quote from a scientist and at others Morano makes his own conclusions. In reading this, I find that I have to constantly remind myself that Morano is arguing not against climate change per se, but against the anthropogenic cause and, more specifically, whether man-made CO2 is affecting climate and to what extent. This book does a good job of refuting that.We have to remember that politicians are using the "science" of climate change to convince the developed world to reduce CO2 emissions and to part with VAST sums of money AND claiming that these actions will alter the trajectory of climate change. The urgency with which they make these claims belies their underlying motives. Beware! Read the book and make up your own mind.
