Green New Deal = Global Warming = End of Earth? NOT

 Global Warming means that we need the Green New Deal or it will be in the end of the earth. Right?

NOT!

There are endless critiques of the policies promoted in the name of Green New Deal and Global Warming. Many arguments can be made against the policies Democrats promote as needed policy. One of the most rational analysis of the issues can be found in the book: Apocalypse Never

The key point of this post is to listen to the podcast. Very Important Information. 

Here are some descriptions of the book and author:

"Apocalypse Never is an extremely important book. Within its lively pages, Michael Shellenberger uses science and lived experience to rescue a subject drowning in misunderstanding and partisanship. His message is invigorating: if you have feared for the planet’s future, take heart." (Richard Rhodes, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for The Making of the Atomic Bomb)

“Environmental issues are frequently confused by conflicting and often extreme views, with both sides fueled to some degree by ideological biases, ignorance and misconceptions. Michael Shellenberger’s balanced and refreshing book delves deeply into a range of environmental issues and exposes misrepresentations by scientists, one-sided distortions by environmental organizations, and biases driven by financial interests. His conclusions are supported by examples, cogent and convincing arguments, facts and source documentation. Apocalypse Never may well be the most important book on the environment ever written.” (Tom Wigley, climate scientist, University of Adelaide, former senior scientist National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), and fellow, American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS))Key points will be added here when time permits.

The author discussed the issues around Climate Change and the irrational ideas were discussed in a long podcast that you should listen to. It is worth the time. 

Here is the link to a very good podcast on these topics. This is a must listen policy issue.
