"Awhile back it dawned on me that the great majority of scare stories about the present and future state of the planet, and humanity as a whole, are based on subjects that are either invisible, such as CO2, extremely remote, such as polar bears and coral reefs, or both. Thus, the vast majority of people have no way of observing and verifying for themselves the truth of these claims predicting these alleged catastrophes and devastating threats. Instead, they must rely on the activists, the media, the politicians, and the scientists - all of whom have a very large financial and/or political stake in the subject - to tell them the truth"-- Provided by publisher.
