Jay Lehr reported just after June of 2020 when Michael Shellenberger published a very important book titled APOCALYPSE NEVER: Why Environmental Alarmism Hurts Us All. In an interview with the Heartland Institute, Mr. Shellenberger indicated that he thought it was the most important book yet to be written on the delusion that has engulfed the entire world for decades, man caused global warming. He is confidant the book will be a game changer in eventually releasing people everywhere from the false fear that has been rained upon them. While there is nothing in the book that has not been said and printed by elite climate scientists often before, I for one am inclined to agree with him as to the books importance. I certainly hope he is correct.
As one who has been directly involved in the publishing of 31 science books as an author, co-author or editor, I am intimidated by having reviewed his1220 endnotes, appearing on 111 pages, supporting everything he has written. I must conclude that he is among the best researchers and writers I have encountered, and clearly one of the smartest. So one must ask why it took him a quarter century to learn and understand the truth.
This first of 3 articles on Mr. Shellenberger and his book is not intended as a book review. Many have already been written, all positive except for some disgruntled Leftists. I will tell you straight out, unless you are confident that you have all the facts on the false assertions claiming man plays a significant roll in controlling the Earth’s thermostat, I strongly recommend that you buy the book at Amazon now.
