Book Synopsis New Emperors' Novel Clothes - Climate Change Analysed by : A. I. Adam
Download or read book New Emperors' Novel Clothes - Climate Change Analysed written by A. I. Adam. This book was released on 2013-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here at last is a scientific voice from the developing world that dissects the West's current obsession with "dangerous man-made climate change." Hans Christian Andersen's 19th century fairy tale, The Emperor's New Clothes, serves as a parable for today's anthropogenic global warming hoax that has politicians, journalists and academics around the developed world bending the knee to the new green religion of climate alarmism. Like the boy in the fairy tale, the author points out that the climate "emperor" also has no clothes. Making extensive use of documentary evidence from across the scientific spectrum he demonstrates that the alleged "consensus" of the climate scientists is non-existent. The writer examines in detail the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessment reports and finds there is no credible scientific evidence to back up the claims of imminent climate catastrophe. The present book has particular significance, given that the developing world will suffer most if deprived of sources of urgently needed cheap energy as a result of the West's futile, indeed hypocritical, crusade to "save the planet" by outlawing fossil fuels. The New Emperors' Novel Clothes is an important addition to the growing body of scientific literature refuting the claims of the climate alarmists. Let's hope more of our politicians are starting to pay attention.

Book Synopsis The Emperor’s New Road by : Jonathan E. Hillman
Download or read book The Emperor’s New Road written by Jonathan E. Hillman. This book was released on 2020-09-29. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prominent authority on China’s Belt and Road Initiative reveals the global risks lurking within Beijing’s project of the century China’s Belt and Road Initiative is the world’s most ambitious and misunderstood geoeconomic vision. To carry out President Xi Jinping’s flagship foreign-policy effort, China promises to spend over one trillion dollars for new ports, railways, fiber-optic cables, power plants, and other connections. The plan touches more than one hundred and thirty countries and has expanded into the Arctic, cyberspace, and even outer space. Beijing says that it is promoting global development, but Washington warns that it is charting a path to global dominance. Taking readers on a journey to China’s projects in Asia, Europe, and Africa, Jonathan E. Hillman reveals how this grand vision is unfolding. As China pushes beyond its borders and deep into dangerous territory, it is repeating the mistakes of the great powers that came before it, Hillman argues. If China succeeds, it will remake the world and place itself at the center of everything. But Xi may be overreaching: all roads do not yet lead to Beijing.

Book Synopsis The Emperor's New Clothes by : Hans Christian Anderson
Download or read book The Emperor's New Clothes written by Hans Christian Anderson. This book was released on 2018-09-23. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hans Christian Andersen was a Danish author best known for writing children's stories including "The Little Mermaid" and "The Ugly Duckling." But he didn't just write short stories, and his intended audience wasn't restricted to children. In addition to his fairy tales, Andersen wrote poems, plays, novels, travel books, essays, and more. He hungered for recognition at home (Denmark) and abroad-and he got it! Eventually. Today, his stories can be read in over one hundred languages. But no matter what language they're in, Andersen's tales have got something for everyone. In them, you'll find beauty, tragedy, nature, religion, artfulness, deception, betrayal, love, death, judgment, penance, and-occasionally-a happy ending. They're complex tales, but since Andersen himself was pretty complex, we like to think that art imitates life. Or something like that. "The Emperor's New Clothes" (Danish: Kejserens nye Kl?der) is a short tale by Hans Christian Andersen about two weavers who promise an Emperor a new suit of clothes that is invisible to those who are unfit for their positions, stupid, or incompetent. When the Emperor parades before his subjects in his new clothes, no one dares to say that he doesn't see any suit of clothes until a child cries out, "But he isn't wearing anything at all!" The tale has been translated into over a hundred languages. Includes a unique illustration!

Book Synopsis Negotiating Climate Change in Crisis by : Steffen Böhm
Download or read book Negotiating Climate Change in Crisis written by Steffen Böhm. This book was released on 2021-09-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change negotiations have failed the world. Despite more than thirty years of high-level, global talks on climate change, we are still seeing carbon emissions rise dramatically. This edited volume, comprising leading and emerging scholars and climate activists from around the world, takes a critical look at what has gone wrong and what is to be done to create more decisive action. Composed of twenty-eight essays—a combination of new and republished texts—the anthology is organised around seven main themes: paradigms; what counts?; extraction; dispatches from a climate change frontline country; governance; finance; and action(s). Through this multifaceted approach, the contributors ask pressing questions about how we conceptualise and respond to the climate crisis, providing both ‘big picture’ perspectives and more focussed case studies. This unique and extensive collection will be of great value to environmental and social scientists alike, as well as to the general reader interested in understanding current views on the climate crisis.
