Description
Heaven + Earth Global Warming: the Missing Science by Ian Plimer explores the complex relationship between human activity and climate change. The author argues that current changes in climate, sea level, and ice are within natural variability, rather than being driven solely by human factors. Plimer examines the evidence from geology, archaeology, history, and astronomy to challenge the widely-held hypothesis that humans can control the climate. He also critiques the reliance on computer models and the lack of critical examination in climate change politics. This book offers a fresh perspective on the science behind global warming and its implications for our understanding of the natural world. By questioning the dominant narratives surrounding climate change, Plimer's work provides a thought-provoking analysis of the complex interactions between human activity and the Earth's systems.
