Are pupils, parents and the public being fed political propaganda
on climate change? Now is your chance to find out. Professor Plimer
gives 101 simple questions with answers for you to ask teachers,
activists, journalists and politicians. The climate industry
adjusts the temperature record and withholds raw data, computer
codes and information from scrutiny. Computer predictions of a
scary future don't agree with measurements. Past natural climate
changes have been larger and more rapid than the worst case
predictions yet humans adapted. Is human-induced global warming the
biggest financial and scientific scam in history? If it is, we will
pay dearly. About the author: PROFESSOR IAN PLIMER (The University
of Adelaide) is Australia's best-known geologist. He is also
Emeritus Professor of Earth Sciences at The University of Melbourne
where he was Professor and Head of Earth Sciences (1991-2005) after
serving at The University of Newcastle (1985-1991) as Professor and
Head of Geology. He was on the staff of the University of New
England, The University of New South Wales and Macquarie
University. He has published more than 120 scientific papers on
geology. This is his eighth book written for the general public,
the best known of which are Telling lies for God (Random House),
Milos-Geologic History (Koan), A Short History of Planet Earth (ABC
Books) and his best-selling Heaven+Earth (Connor Court). He won the
Leopold von Buch Plakette (German Geological Society), Clarke Medal
(Royal Society of NSW), Sir Willis Connolly Medal (Australasian
Institute of Mining and Metallurgy), was elected Fellow of the
Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering and
was elected Honorary Fellow of the Geological Society of London. In
1995, he was Australian Humanist of the Year and later was awarded
the Centenary Medal. He was Managing Editor of Mineralium Deposita,
president of the SGA, president of IAGOD, president of the
Australian Geoscience Council and sat on the Earth Sciences
Committee of the Australian Research Council for many years. He won
