Watermelons: How Environmentalists are Killing the Planet, Destroying the Economy and Stealing Your Children's Future - Tapa blanda

"This is a serious and significant book." -- Matt Ridley, The Spectator

"A polemic, an analysis, an enormously valuable, well-researched and referenced resource." -- Roger Helmer MEP

"Delingpole is a brilliantly funny and entertaining writer. You ll zoom through his book in a day and, at the end, you ll be able to win almost any argument about climate change" --Daniel Hannan MEP

"Did Delingpole s book convince me to come down on his side of the argument? No, but it did unsettle me, shake me out of my complacency and make me question my own views. What more could any polemicist ask for?" --Mail on Sunday

The shocking story of how an unholy mix of junk science, green hype, corporate greed and political opportunism led to the biggest - and most expensive - outbreak of mass hysteria in history. Watermelons explains the Climategate scandal, the cast of characters involved, their motives and methods. He delves into the background of the organisations and individuals who have sought to push global warming to the top of the political agenda, showing that beneath their cloak of green lurks a heart of red. Watermelons shows how the scientific method has been sacrificed on the altar of climate alarmism. Delingpole mocks the green movement's record of apocalyptic predictions, reveals the fundamental misanthropy of green ideology, and gives a refreshing voice to widespread public skepticism over global warming, emphasising that the crisis has been engineered by people seeking to control our lives by imposing new taxes and regulations. Your taxes will be raised, your liberties curtailed and your money squandered to deal with this crisis, he writes. Delingpole argues that climate change is an ideological battle, not a scientific one. Green on the outside, red on the inside, the libertyloathing, humanity-hating watermelons of the modern environmental movement do not want to save the world. They want to rule it.
