Meltdown : The Predictable Distortion of Global Warming by Scientists, Politicians, and the Media Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Why is news about global warming always bad? Why do scientists so often offer dire predictions about the future of the environment?

In Meltdown, climatologist Patrick Michaels says it?s only natural.

He argues that the way we do science today - when issues compete with each other for monopoly funding by the government - creates a culture of exaggeration and a political comunity that then takes credit for having saved us from certain doom.

Michaels starts with a succinct discussion of climate-change science and then unrolls a litany of falsehood, exaggeration, and misstatement.

He cited hundreds of errors and exaggerations in scientific papers, new reports, and television sound bites.
