About this listen

This original audiobook considers one of the most extraordinary scientific and political stories of our time: how in the 1980s a handful of scientists came to believe that mankind faced catastrophe from runaway global warming, and how today this has persuaded politicians to land us with what promises to be the biggest bill in history.

Christopher Booker interweaves the science of global warming with that of its growing political consequences, showing how just when the politicians are threatening to change our Western way of life beyond recognition, the scientific evidence behind the global warming theory is being challenged like never before.

The audiobook exposes the myth that the global warming theory is supported by a 'consensus of the world's top climate scientists'. It shows how the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is run by a small group of 'global warming' zealots, who have repeatedly rigged evidence to support their theory. But the politicians, pushed by the media, have so fallen for its propaganda that, short of dramatic change, our Western world now faces an unprecedented disaster.

An excellent by the numbers destruction of climate alarmism. A truly great and brave man.

Masterpiece of journalism.

Belief in evidence is what counts. Don't like Trump, didn't like Thatcher but at least they didn’t allow puppets to pull the strings.

No fair-minded reader could possibly doubt the truth of this book: the promised catastrophic Armageddon due to man made global warming is an expensive, dangerous lie

Fascinating and factual.

I wish that I had read this book 10 years ago. It has filled the missing piece of a jigsaw puzzle. A nagging doubt that was hidden by a black hole of missing information. I have made a note to revisit it in 6 months for a top up. Wow

The best book so far this year - out of 50!

What did you like most about The Real Global Warming Disaster?

The book examines the skeptic view which has been outlawed by the climate warming orthodoxy. It explains how the many counter arguments put forward by academic scientists are ignored by politicians despite the logic of many of the arguments and shunned by broadcasters and news owners/journalists who seem to almost enjoy the lack of impartiality in reporting climate change, like as if it is a football team.

What did you like best about this story?

The book disputes that there is a man made climate change = catastrophe consensus.

Any additional comments?

The book adds some weight to the argument that our views about supposed AGW and the surrounding governmental policies need to be reconsidered.

Refreshing look at the skeptic view
