The attempted cures for climate change are generally worse than the disease—especially for the poor. In this groundbreaking volume, experts in all the fields related to climate change explain for laymen what we know about climate change and evaluate from a Christian perspective the proposed responses.
Demands to transform the global energy infrastructure to depend heavily on wind, solar, and other renewables are harmful to people in America and the world–especially to the poor. Meanwhile, continued large-scale use of traditional energy sources like nuclear, hydro, and fossil fuels would reduce poverty while doing less harm to the environment.
Climate and Energy Policy combines outstanding climate science, physics, economics, environmental science, political science, ethics, and theology to present a well-reasoned understanding of human-induced climate change and how to respond to it.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - '. a 'heretical' scientific and rational discussion of the issue that affects every person on earth. Fourteen climate scientists, energy engineers, and environmental economists, along with a theologian, offer a rigorous discussion of: the real causes of 'global warming'; how sensitive the climate actually is to greenhouse gases; how the sun, oceans, clouds, and rain play a key role in climate change; the benefits of human-generated CO2; why the abandonment of fossil fuels would leave developing countries permanently impoverished and doom millions to an early death; the failure of renewable energies--and the billion-dollar subsidies that fund them; the ethics of climate and energy policy; [and] how climate change may actually leave man better off.'--Provided by publisher.
