Global warming is the number one environmental issue of our time,
yet some prominent politicians have refused to accept scientific
evidence of human responsibility and have opposed any legislation
or international agreement that would limit greenhouse gas
emissions. A few have gone even further and have tried to destroy
the reputations of scientists researching climate change by
deliberately undermining the credibility of their research. These
politicians have sought to sow seeds of doubt in the minds of the
public and to weaken public and political support for the control
of fossil fuel use. In this powerful book, highly respected climate
scientist Raymond Bradley provides the inside story from the front
lines of the debate. In clear and direct language, he describes the
tactics those in power have used to intimidate him and his
colleagues part of a larger pattern of governmental suppression of
scientific information, politics at the expense of empirically
based discourse. Speaking from his experience, Bradley exposes the
fault lines in the global warming debate, while providing a concise
primer on climate change. The result is a cautionary tale of how
politics and science can become fatally intertwined.
