What People are Saying About This

Larry Kudlow

"Free market capitalism is still the best path to prosperity. Green Hell is a must-read for anyone who wants to keep America on that path and away from Soviet-style command-and-control environmentalism."--(Larry Kudlow, Host, CNBC's The Kudlow Report)

Dick Morris

"Regardless of whether you believe global warming is a fraud, the fact is that the current depression, the past spike in oil prices, and the coming technology of electric cars are all going to solve whatever problem exists. Liberals want to use climate change as an excuse to take over the economy and regulate everything and this book exposes their plans."--(Dick Morris, FOX News commentator and former political consultant to Bill Clinton)

Fred Barnes

"Green Hell explains why Americans can't afford to fall for Al Gore's 'the debate is over' line on global warming. While we're all for the environment, Green Hell explains why we need to oppose the environmentalists."--(Fred Barnes, Executive Editor, the Weekly Standard)

Vaclav Klaus

"This book describes why the world can't afford to fall for global warming alarmism and environmental hysteria. Steve Milloy shows how to avoid the environmentalists' vision of our future."--(Vaclav Klaus, President of the European Union and President of the Czech Republic)

Steve Forbes

"Green Hell is the 'inconvenient truth' on extremist, growth-killing environmentalism. A must-read for those interested in keeping America free and prosperous."--(Steve Forbes, President and Chief Executive Officer of Forbes)

Editorial Reviews

Steven Milloy has been an active opponent of the green movement—here he takes on its motives and tactics. Robertson Dean’s sarcastic tone can be hilarious as he delivers Milloy's take on journal articles, current events, and policy statements about climate change. Milloy's research and snappy writing style will make listeners analyze green rhetoric. However, listeners might also think about a favorite Milloy target, Paul Ehrlich. It’s true that the overpopulation crisis he predicted hasn’t materialized, and that’s because, Milloy notes, the rise in population was met with technological improvements. But can we be sure those improvements would have taken place without Ehrlich’s warnings? Milloy's thoughts about regulation and freedom are important; listeners on both sides need to weigh each claim and option carefully. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
