About this listen
You have been inundated with reports from media, governments, think tanks, and "experts" saying that our climate is changing for the worse, and it is our fault. Increases in droughts, heat waves, tornadoes, and poison ivy - to name a few - are all blamed on our "sins of emissions" from burning fossil fuels and increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Yet, you don't quite buy into this human-caused climate apocalypse. You aren't sure about the details because you don't have all the facts and likely aren't a scientist.
Inconvenient Facts was recorded specifically for you. Described in plain English and providing easy-to-understand information, Gregory Wrightstone presents the science to assess the basis of the threatening Thermageddon.The audiobook's 60 "inconvenient facts" come from government sources, peer-reviewed literature, or scholarly works, set forth in a way that is lucid and entertaining. The information will likely challenge your current understanding of many apocalyptic predictions about our ever dynamic climate. You will learn that the planet is improving, not in spite of increasing CO2 and rising temperature, but because of it. The very framework of the climate-catastrophe argument will be confronted with scientific fact.
Arm yourself with the truth.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

At important meetings in 2021 and 2022, powerful leaders from government, finance, media, and business who support the World Economic Forum’s plan for a Great Reset of capitalism launched a new “call to action” titled the “Great Narrative.” The Great Narrative campaign seeks to use the decay of traditional values throughout the West and new and future advancements in technology—including in the areas of artificial intelligence, automation, the metaverse, robotics, and more—to seize control of economies and societies in North America and Europe.

In American Marxism, Mark Levin explained how Marxist ideology has invaded our society and culture. In doing so, he exposed the institutions, scholars, and activists leading the revolution. Now, he picks up where he left off: to hold responsible the true malefactors steering our country down the wrong path. Insightful and hard-hitting as ever, Levin proves that since its establishment, the Democrat Party has set out to rewrite history and destroy the foundation of freedom in America.

Story
The quest for social justice is a powerful crusade of our time, with an appeal to many different people, for many different reasons. But those who use the same words do not always present the same meanings. Clarifying those meanings is the first step toward finding out what we agree on and disagree on. From there, it is largely a question of what the facts are. Social Justice Fallacies reveals how many things that are thought to be true simply cannot stand up to documented facts, which are often the opposite of what is widely believed.

Story
Gender identity ideology is about more than Twitter storms and using the right pronouns. In just 10 years, laws, company policies, school and university curricula, sport, medical protocols, and the media have been reshaped to privilege self-declared gender identity over biological sex. People are being shamed and silenced for attempting to understand the consequences of redefining "man" and "woman". While compassion for transgender lives is well-intentioned, it is stifling much-needed inquiry into the significance of our bodies.

Story
When it comes to climate change, the media, politicians, and other prominent voices have declared that "the science is settled." In reality, the long game of telephone from research to reports to the popular media is corrupted by misunderstanding and misinformation. Core questions - about the way the climate is responding to our influence, and what the impacts will be - remain largely unanswered. The climate is changing, but the why and how aren't as clear as you've probably been led to believe.

In The War on the West, Douglas Murray shows how many well-meaning people have been fooled by hypocritical and inconsistent anti-West rhetoric. After all, if we must discard the ideas of Kant, Hume, and Mill for their opinions on race, shouldn’t we discard Marx, whose work is peppered with racial slurs and anti-Semitism? Embers of racism remain to be stamped out in America, but what about the raging racist inferno in the Middle East and Asia?

Michael Shellenberger has been fighting for a greener planet for decades. He helped save the world’s last unprotected redwoods. He co-created the predecessor to today’s Green New Deal. And he led a successful effort by climate scientists and activists to keep nuclear plants operating, preventing a spike of emissions. But in 2019, as some claimed "billions of people are going to die", contributing to rising anxiety, including among adolescents, Shellenberger decided that he needed to speak out to separate science from fiction.

And contrary to what we hear from media “experts” about today’s “renewable revolution” and “climate emergency,” reality has proven Epstein right.

Yet the Big Three have decided that they can reliably pick the right social policies instead.

Christopher Booker interweaves the science of global warming with that of its growing political consequences, showing how just when the politicians are threatening to change our Western way of life beyond recognition, the scientific evidence behind the global warming theory is being challenged like never before.

For decades environmentalists have told us that using fossil fuels is a self-destructive addiction that will destroy our planet. Yet by every measure of human well-being, from life expectancy to clean water to climate safety, life has been getting better and better. How can this be? The explanation is that we usually hear only one side of the story. We're taught to think only of the negatives of fossil fuels, their risks and side effects, but not their positives.

While everything appears to be collapsing around us - ecodamage, genetic engineering, virulent diseases, water shortages, global famine, wars - we can still do something about it and create a world that will work for us and for our children's children. The inspiration for Leonardo DiCaprio's feature documentary movie The 11th Hour, The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight details what is happening to our planet, the reasons for our culture's blind behavior, and how we can fix the problem.

Michael Shellenberger has been fighting for a greener planet for decades. He helped save the world’s last unprotected redwoods. He co-created the predecessor to today’s Green New Deal. And he led a successful effort by climate scientists and activists to keep nuclear plants operating, preventing a spike of emissions. But in 2019, as some claimed "billions of people are going to die", contributing to rising anxiety, including among adolescents, Shellenberger decided that he needed to speak out to separate science from fiction.

At the end of World War II, U.S. intelligence agents confiscated thousands of Nazi documents on what was known as the “Fischer-Tropsch Process” - a series of equations developed by German chemists unlocking the secrets of how oil is formed. When the Nazis took power, Germany had resolved to develop enough synthetic oil to wage war successfully, even without abundant national oil reserves.

Who can forget the sense of wonder with which they discovered the creatures of the deep? In this vibrant hymn to the sea, Callum Roberts - one of the world’s foremost conservation biologists - leads listeners on a fascinating tour of mankind’s relationship to the sea, from the earliest traces of water on Earth to the oceans as we know them today. In the process, Roberts looks at how the taming of the oceans has shaped human civilization and affected marine life. Like Four Fish and The Omnivore’s Dilemma, The Ocean of Life takes a long view to tell a story in which each one of us has a role to play.

Today it is common knowledge that the dinosaurs were wiped out by a meteorite impact 65 million years ago that killed half of all species then living. It is far less widely understood that a much greater catastrophe took place at the end of the Permian period 251 million years ago: at least 90 percent of life on earth was destroyed. When Life Nearly Died documents not only what happened during this gigantic mass extinction, but also the recent renewal of the idea of catastrophism.

Some 73,000 years ago, the Mount Toba supervolcano in toda's Indonesia erupted, releasing the energy of a million tons of explosives. So much ash and debris was injected into the stratosphere that it partially blocked the sun's radiation and caused global temperatures to drop for a decade. In this book, Donald R. Prothero presents the controversial argument that the Toba catastrophe nearly wiped out the human race, leaving only about a thousand to ten thousand breeding pairs of humans worldwide.

Marc Morano’s analysis of the proposed Green New Deal is eye-opening and damning. Morano exposes the program as a far-left agenda filled with progressive policies disguised as a way to save the planet. No matter what the environmental scare-of-the-day may be, Morano says, the same solution is always proposed - and that solution should scare us. Morano clearly reveals how the Green New Deal will lay a path for “global governance”, resulting in less freedom, less sovereignty, massive government bureaucracy, and significant, crippling wealth redistribution.

When it comes to climate change, the media, politicians, and other prominent voices have declared that "the science is settled." In reality, the long game of telephone from research to reports to the popular media is corrupted by misunderstanding and misinformation. Core questions - about the way the climate is responding to our influence, and what the impacts will be - remain largely unanswered. The climate is changing, but the why and how aren't as clear as you've probably been led to believe.

Hard to listen too, but worth it
This book is written very dry and hard to listen to. This is caused by 2 parts. First, the narrative sounds like one of the annoying those a know it alls. Second is the obvious absolute hatred the author has toward environmental activists. I skipped to chapter 5 because the first couple chapters were too bias. However I still recommend listening to it because it contains a lot of good facts. His reasoning makes sense and double checking his research proves he knows what he is talking about and his logic is convincing. The media is helping tell a lie about carbon. I still think that some action needs to be taken in respect to the environment but not carbon reduction.

Devastating To The Religion of Climate Alarmism
Fantastic! The rebuttals I've seen to this book are pathetic. Instead of refuting the facts, the alarmists disparage the conclusions. And conveniently skip the most sensible evidence. It's amazing that so many people are so easily convinced by models when the data so easily dispels them. Models are manipulated to yield their desired conclusions which the data refutes.
We're experiencing the greatest, most expensive and destructive fraud ever hoisted on humanity.

It is truly astounding this information is not more widely shared. This is the kind of information that should be on the nightly news. These current false prophets of science I have done more harm then any good they may have fooled them selves to believe

Sooooo aggravating.....
....to learn of this irrefutable data and empirical evidence based on actual science which so solidly obliterates the politically driven power mongers of major governments of the world and their plan for control through the climate cooling/warming/change hoax the past 50 years! Yes, facts are stubborn things. My choice was made easy. Who should I believe? A "consensus of scientists" (science is not consensus and consensus is not science) who proclaim their findings based on computer models and software programs they create to arrive at the results they desperately need to satisfy the expectations of the government entities which provide them the research grants to keep doing the "Lord's" work OR should I consider the actual facts of geologic and climate history over millions of years which screams at us not to be so blindly gullible?
If you are an adherent of man-caused climate change, I dare you to read this book and refute even ONE of the 60 facts so well-documented and plainly presented. Can an ever-growing polar bear population be wrong? What? We're still warming up from the last mini-ice age of 350 years ago? We are actually experiencing a decrease in the number of tornadoes and hurricanes? And what's this about plant growth being much, much higher and food more plentiful because there is more carbon dioxide in the air? Who knew? What happened when the oceans were 20 times more acidic than today? What happened when the global temperature was 8 degrees F warmer? Gasp!! And how high will the seas rise if the Arctic ice cap melts? (Hint: Watch the water level in your glass as the ice melts). I gotta stop.

Very interesting, to the point and clear.
The data actually makes so much sense. I was not very interested in reading on environmental topics before this. It reminds me much of my college days where we had to read loads on the alarming side of the conversation. But after listening to this book, I’m quite interested to learn more. The list of inconvenient facts at the end was highly appreciated!

Content was great, but…
Content was fantastic. Broken out into climate facts and easily consumable. My only complaint is the overuse of the word “hobgoblin” - which is a weird word to overuse. That’s probably what made it so distracting. Overall - not a deterrent to someone wanting to read it, just a slight annoyance.

Impressive Research
Because of its title, I initially thought this book would have a pugnacious tone, or combative style. It really is just a collection of scientific facts regarding the environment. I found them intriguing since most of the news portrays our current climate status as catastrophic. I am convinced more than ever that the antidote to fear is plain simple truth.

Factual
As a geologist, all the information that has been released in the past thirty years by the media about man made global warming has been so contradictory to everything I learned as a student and a practicing professional geologist the past 55 years. This is 80 percent of the book I was researching to write to educate the masses.
Wonderful entertaining and educational book. Job well done.
