Climate and Energy (eBook, ePUB)

The Case for Realism

Produktbeschreibung

The attempted cures for climate change are generally worse than the disease-especially for the poor. In this groundbreaking volume, experts in all the fields related to climate change explain for laymen what we know about climate change and evaluate from a Christian perspective the proposed responses. Demands to transform the global energy infrastructure to depend heavily on wind, solar, and other renewables are harmful to people in America and the worldespecially to the poor. Meanwhile, continued large-scale use of traditional energy sources like nuclear, hydro, and fossil fuels would reduce poverty while doing less harm to the environment. Climate and Energy: The Case For Realism combines outstanding climate science, physics, economics, environmental science, political science, ethics, and theology to present a well-reasoned understanding of human-induced climate change and how to respond to it.
