What if you could read a well-researched, accurate book, written by an experienced scientist, based upon verified science, and grounded in the scientific method? When you read about Climate Change, do you stop and just wonder what the term ?climate change? actually means? What?s the current accepted definition? How are the news reporters defining it? Do you read climate change and think global warming or cooling? How are scientists defining it? Weather and climate are not interchangeable terms. Weather is a current, small area event such as a monster tornado in Missouri, a flash flood in Florida, a hurricane hitting Hoboken, or today?s temperature in Timbuktu. Climate is a long-term, large area, or global, average of variable warming and cooling events. We?ve had 100,000-year-long ice ages interspersed with 12,000-year-long interglacial warm periods. Yet, ever present in our minds, media, and politics for at least the last 22 years have been model-based predictions of catastrophic global warming. And, before that, back in the 1970s, the ?scare-of-the-day? was?yep, you guessed it?catastrophic global cooling. But, Earth isn?t a block of ice or a flaming orb. Where?s the scientific evidence of a supposed climate doomsday? There is none! But, what we do have is eons of history from which to learn. And that?s what A Tale of Two Climates: One Real, One Imaginary/i is about. To define climate change properly, we need well-researched, accurate, and verified science. All of it must be grounded in the scientific method and rear-view-mirror hindcasts of history, not crystal ball forecasts of the future.
