Despite media reports to the contrary, there is no scientific consensus on global warming.

Two new books, "Unstoppable Global Warming Every 1500 Years," by physicist Fred Singer and economist Dennis Avery was released just before Christmas. "The Chilling Stars", by Danish physicist Henrik Svensmark and former BBC science writer Nigel Calder is due out in March. Neither attributes human activity to global warming.

"Science" magazine has written that humans are responsible for less than 1% of the "greenhouse effect." So, even if we banned the use of all fossil fuels worldwide, it would still leave 99+% of the "problem" completely unaddressed.

An older book, (1997), "You Don't Say" by Fred Gielow, reprints and sources comments made by prominent members of the Left around the world. A fun read. However, if people like this ever got total control over our lives, I am afraid it wouldn't be much fun at all. The UN Biodiversity Assessment specifies that we assume a "peasant level of subsistence." Oh, won't that be fun?

Extreme environmentalism is akin to communism. It's all about excessive government regulation and control by elites.
