ENERGY
AND CLIMATE WARS cuts
through the jargon, the media hype and the
speculative science to present key facts too often
obscured in the media. Along the way
it demolishes a string of popular myths,
including beliefs that:
•
politicians understand the importance of
energy in the modern world
•
the science is all in on climate and that CO2
is a pollutant
•
renewable energy can ever replace
hydrocarbon energy
•
the oil is running out or has already peaked
Further, it reveals how:
•
Russia has embarked on a new era of
energy imperialism
•
China is buying up the world s energy
resources and will dominate
•
ideologically-driven elites are using energy-
climate as a means to achieve power
Energy is the world s most important commodity.
Without energy the modern industrialized world,
as we know it, would return to the dark ages.
In this well-researched book, Glover and
Economides reveal how creating a culture of
alarmism has given political and green
ideologues an unprecedented opportunity to
promote distortions about energy and climate
-
and impose social engineering ideals alleged to
be in the common interest .
