Sinossi
A compelling exposé of the highly problematic scholarship of Bjørn Lomborg, the world&;s leading global warming skeptic
In this major assessment of leading climate-change skeptic Bjørn Lomborg, Howard Friel meticulously deconstructs the Danish statistician&;s claim that global warming is &;no catastrophe&; by exposing the systematic misrepresentations and partial accounting that are at the core of climate skepticism. His detailed analysis serves not only as a guide to reading the global warming skeptics, but also as a model for assessing the state of climate science. With attention to the complexities of climate-related phenomena across a range of areas&;from Arctic sea ice to the Antarctic ice sheet&;The Lomborg Deception also offers readers an enlightening review of some of today&;s most urgent climate concerns.
Friel&;s book is the first to respond directly to Lomborg&;s controversial research as published in The Skeptical Environmentalist (2001) and Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist&;s Guide to Global Warming (2007). His close reading of Lomborg&;s textual claims and supporting footnotes reveals a lengthy list of findings that will rock climate skeptics and their allies in the government and news media, demonstrating that the published peer-reviewed climate science, as assessed mainly by the U.N.&;s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, has had it mostly right&;even if somewhat conservatively right&;all along. Friel&;s able defense of Al Gore&;s An Inconvenient Truth against Lomborg&;s repeated attacks is by itself worth an attentive reading.
