A Comedy of Errors, Really!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Global Warming...Really? (Paperback)
A serious book with well documented sources that made me laugh. Not at the content, but at the comedy of errors. It seems like weather is a constant in this world - constantly changing that is. Predictions come and go, and well, come and go. This helps to document the cyclic trend in the great debate between the ice age and the global warming - or the great meltdown. Well done Mr. Parker - You have given me a visual of 'Chicken Little' running around with the GWAs 'warning' the world of impending doom. I guess in a few years they will switch back to the Ice Age apocalypse. Enjoyed the book, Really!

A blend of humor, science and common sense,

This review is from: Global Warming...Really? (Paperback)
Thomas Jefferson said "Information is the currency of democracy," and GregParker's first venture into the publishing arena gives the reader a substantial amount of currency for the greatest debate of our generation. Parker's wit and charisma are evident as he breaks down this complex issue. Written in simple language for the laymen it serves as a guide for those seeking quick retort when facing irrational "Global Warming Alarmists." Former Vice President and self anointed prophet of the Global Warming Alarmist movement, Al Gore famously stated in testimony before Congress "The debate is over!" But after reading "Global Warming.... Really?" I believe that Mr. Parker either didn't get that particular memo or he received it but sarcastically proclaimed "Really!?!" In a refreshing style he tackles the science and dispels many of the myths perpetuated by Al Gore and the troglodytes who follow without question the dictates of those who wish to reshape the American economy and disrupt the perceived evils of capitalism. These Global Warming Alarmists hide behind junk science and fear tactics as they attempt to radically change the world in one of the largest transfers of wealth the world will have ever been witness to. Parker exposes the faces of those working behind the scenes and the bold face lies they spin in this highly informative book. Parker details the timeline and traces this issue back to expose the many faces and incarnations of a topic that resurrects and reinvents itself generation after generation. Who can forget the looming "Ice Age" predicted in the 70's? According to so-called experts then we would soon be able to walk across the Atlantic from NYC to the shores of the United Kingdom. Headlines brought to us courtesy of such journalistic geniuses as US News and World Report with stories like "Even U.S. Farms May Be Hit By Cooling Trend," or Time Magazine's story on the "Expanding Arctic." There seems to be little difference between the hysteria then and the hyperbole now. In Parker's analysis we learn that the only hope for slaying the beast of irrational fear when it comes to what amounts to nothing more than the weather is to arm ourselves with the truth, to seek out information and to never believe the debate is over. Parker has managed to blend humor, science and common sense into an issue in a way that is easily digestible and entertaining. Given the fact that this book has been peer reviewed by respected scientists such as Dr. Tim Ball as well as meteorologist and media contributor Joe Bastardi of "Accuweather," fame lends credibility to the book and the claims made within. To this reader it is obvious that this book is not just an opinion piece rather it is a thoughtfully written book backed by real science. Parker boldly addresses how this impacts minorities through gross manipulation, mis-information and downright intimidation with hollow promises of Social and Economic Justice. "Global Warming....Really?" flies in the face of conventional media coverage and the for-profit perpetuators of this Global Armageddon. If you are tired of the same old tripe being spewed on the subject of Global Warming then you will enjoy this book and like Joe Bastardi stated, "I couldn't put it down." I hope that Mr. Parker will share his views and well researched work on more topics in the future, REALLY!!!!!

A Fresh View of the Global Warming Scam,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Global Warming...Really? (Paperback)
Easy to read, this book is well documented and shows that the earth has faced warming and cooling over its whole existence of time! The author points out the ramifications of this bad, junk science, and talks about how detrimental carbon trading and green jobs can be for the economy. The movement of man-made global warming leads back to greed, power, money, and control of human beings, and the author, Gregory Parker, does a great job showing this through his writings.
