The shocking story of how an unholy mix of junk
science, green hype, corporate greed and political
opportunism led to the biggest - and most expensive -
outbreak of mass hysteria in history. Watermelons
explains the Climategate scandal, the cast of characters
involved, their motives and methods. He delves into the
background of the organisations and individuals who have
sought to push global warming to the top of the
political agenda, showing that beneath their cloak of
green lurks a heart of red. Watermelons shows how the
scientific method has been sacrificed on the altar of
climate alarmism. Delingpole mocks the green movement's
record of apocalyptic predictions, reveals the
fundamental misanthropy of green ideology, and gives a
refreshing voice to widespread public skepticism over
global warming, emphasising that the crisis has been
engineered by people seeking to control our lives by
imposing new taxes and regulations. Your taxes will be
raised, your liberties curtailed and your money
squandered to deal with this crisis, he writes.
Delingpole argues that climate change is an ideological
battle, not a scientific one.Green on the outside, red
on the inside, the libertyloathing, humanity-hating
watermelons of the modern environmental movement do not
want to save the world. They want to rule it. |
