Title: Fast and Loose Facts don't equal Truth
Review: It's hard to know where to start to demolish this shaky structure! Perhaps the foundation? The plain truth is that there is no global warming evident during the past 100 years when anthropogenic forces should have really been at their worst. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has more than doubled in that era, but the earth cooled a tiny bit! The only thing I can say is that one robin does not make a spring and a few years of [what seems to short-lived humans!] extra warmth or drought or rain or cold does not constitute a trend in climate. Back off a bit and look at thousand year cycles if you want to know about climate. Lynas has done a good job of finding the "low-hanging fruit" that always gets picked first, but he certainly has not investigated and used his brain to analyze data and reach adult conclusions. File this book with the rest of the fables such as Chicken Little and the Falling Sky. It doesn't rate any stars at all!
