This original audiobook considers one of the most extraordinary scientific and political stories of our time: how in the 1980s a handful of scientists came to believe that mankind faced catastrophe from runaway global warming, and how today this has persuaded politicians to land us with what promises to be the biggest bill in history.
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.
The audiobook exposes the myth that the global warming theory is supported by a 'consensus of the world's top climate scientists'. It shows how the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is run by a small group of 'global warming' zealots, who have repeatedly rigged evidence to support their theory. But the politicians, pushed by the media, have so fallen for its propaganda that, short of dramatic change, our Western world now faces an unprecedented disaster.

What did you love best about The Real Global Warming Disaster?
Exposing the political and corporate motivation behind the sham. I believe that our climate is a dynamic system with many factors that can affect the day to day weather as well as the more long term affects on our climate and is not an anthropogenic event. The use of risk models and maps to predict the long term climate change has an inherent, although not immediately apparent, flaw: dependability. Not one of them is taking into consideration the role of sunspots and solar wind and their affect on our climate cycles. Scientists believe that the number of spots on the sun cycles over time, reaching a peak—the so-called Solar Maximum—every 11 years or so. Some studies indicate that sunspot activity overall has doubled in the last century. The apparent result down here on Earth is that the sun glows brighter by about 0.1 percent now than it did 100 years ago.The truth behind the "Global Warming" curtain.

Declaring it "Settled Science" is NOT how Science works. If new information is presented, you retest your hypothesis in the acid bath of the new information, not dismiss the information and declare the information invalid.

It is well-researched and still valid even though, what, eight years old now? Methinks, however, that they repeated some points one or two times more than necessary... to the point where, by the appendices, I had to stop listening. I think the number of times certain points were hammered on made the arguments made somehow less convincing.
Overall, good job, and keep fighting the good fight. This nonsense has gone on far too long, the general public has become a bunch of mindless automatons who repeat the same old press releases over and over. "Science" is not on the side of any political party. I happen to believe that there is very likely some anthropogenic effect related to climate change. But I have yet to read a very good paper making this case, and the hyperbole and vitriol surrounding this issue is toxic to REASON itself.

I feel like understand the science pretty well, but I have always been mystified as to how so many smart people could disagree with each other on such simple issues.
Booker's history details the creation of the IPCC, and the political baby steps which got us here. In each case, a small group acted in their own interest, and each step seemed almost reasonable. But the net effect has been this wide-scale tragedy, that will scar and shame the scientific community for generations.
As someone who really loves science, I hate to see it abused. This book offered little peace, but gave me a lot of understanding.
