Frightening and Informative

Review from Hothouse Earth →

This book clearly and concisely explains what is likely to happen in the worst case scenario of not getting carbon and methane emissions under control. It breaks myths associated with global warming/climate change and confronts the rose colored glasses portrayal by media organizations. It explains how effects we’re seeing TODAY are related to what the..

Disappointed

Review from Hothouse Earth →

McGuire undercut his own credibility when lies about the solar geo-engineering experiments proposed by Harvard University Professor, David Keith, and instead describes the program as advocating for solar geo.

It’s unclear if the band were at all involved, but there’s nearly nothing here that one couldn’t gather from..

Intriguing Content, Inferior Narration.

Review from Condensed Chaos →

The content of the book is good and most of it is easy to understand, and I’d recommend it to beginners or anyone with misconceptions about it. However there should have been post production work on the narration as there is great fluctuations in the quality of his voice as well as loud hissing from..
