Indhold

 

 

Forord

FN’s klimakonference november/december 2009 i København er baggrund for denne emneliste. Emnelistens indhold er baggrund, dokumentation og debat om den globale opvarmning og de nødvendige ændringer af samfundet.
Den engelsksprogede del har også et bredere afsnit med diskussioner om klima, miljø, kapitalisme og socialisme.
Endvidere materiale om de såkaldte klimaskeptikere, som i Danmark står stærkest i den borgerlige lejr, se appendix om Klimaskepsis.
Og i Danmark mener et stort mindretal (30 pct.), at den globale opvarmning overvejende er et resultat af naturlige klimaforandringer (eller slet ikke eksisterer) (Berlingske.dk, 30.4.2008). I en nyere undersøgelse er tallet steget til 40 pct. (Berlingske.dk, 12.2.2010) + Grafik. Ifølge Klimabarometeret (Concito, 2018), er udviklingen nu vendt.

Review by Owen McCormack (Irish Marxist Review, Vol.10, No.30, 2021). “Neale’s book, written in a non-academic and easy-to-read style is the best and most important book on the climate crisis you could read this year.”
Review by Janet Bujra (ROAPE, April 29, 2021). “Written by a committed socialist and climate activist, with a powerful analysis framed by radical political economy, Jonathan Neale both informs and inspires, with a realistic assessment of the problem of global warming and of potential solutions.”

“Brain J. Baker has given an extremely misleading picture of the state of knowledge about climate change.”

“Baker ridicules the concept of ‘scientific consensus’. It is true that the scientific community does not operate in a vacuum and that it is very often subject to pressures of politics, religion, social rules, prejudices and also directly from the market. But this does not invalidate the concept of scientific consensus altogether.”
