SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Climate Alarmism Reconsidered demonstrates how the balance of evidence suggests a benign enhanced greenhouse effect, and how the case for mandatory greenhouse gas reductions depends on unrealistic assumptions. This multi-disciplinary study concludes that climate alarmism and its corollary, policy activism, are unwarranted and counterproductive and that free-market structures and the wealth generated by markets help communities to best adapt to climate change."--BOOK JACKET.
