Description

 							
  
  Humans have always used denial.
When we are afraid, guilty, confused, or when something interferes with our self-image, we tend to deny it. Yet denial
is a delusion. When it impacts on the health of oneself, or society, or the world it becomes a pathology. Climate change
denial is such a case. Paradoxically, as the climate science has become more certain, denial about the issue has
increased. The paradox lies in the denial. There is a denial industry funded by the fossil fuel companies that literally
denies the science, and seeks to confuse the public. There is denial within governments, where spin-doctors use 'weasel
words' to pretend they are taking action. However there is also denial within most of us, the citizenry. We let denial
prosper and we resist the science. 
  
  Climate Change Denial explains the social science behind denial. It
contains a detailed examination of the principal climate change denial arguments, from attacks on the integrity of
scientists, to impossible expectations of proof and certainty to the cherry picking of data. Climate change can be
solved – but only when we cease to deny that it exists. This book shows how we can break through denial, accept
reality, and thus solve the climate crisis. It will engage scientists, university students, climate change activists as
well as the general public seeking to roll back denial and act.
  
  Review
  
  'Ignorance of
science is one blockade to effective action on the human predicament. But corporate-financed disinformation campaigns,
such as that claiming that climate disruption is a hoax, are equally important. This excellent short book will help
solve both those problems.'- Paul R. Ehrlich, co-author of Humanity on a Tightrope
  
  'Climate Change Denial
reveals the crossroads we face as a society: do we let denial and confusion continue to derail solutions, leaving us
vulnerable to runaway climate change, or do we accept reality and forge a truly sustainable path for future
generations?'- James Hoggan, author of Climate Cover-Up and president of DeSmogBlog
  
  'This is a major
contribution to the growing body of well-reasoned analyses of climate change denial. It's a must read for anyone
interested in understanding the tactics used by the 'denial industry' to attack scientific evidence of anthropogenic
climate change.' -Riley E. Dunlap, Regents Professor of Sociology, Oklahoma State University
  
  'Climate
Change denial is the biggest single obstacle to achieving a sustainable future. This book provides all the evidence and
arguments you need to counter the campaign of misinformation. Read it, study it and spread its message widely.' -Ian
Lowe, Emeritus Professor, School of Science, Griffith University and President of the Australian Conservation
Foundation
  
  'The climate denial industry has worked effectively for years, hidden in the shadows, doing
their dirty work of misleading the public, misrepresenting the science of climate change, and helping to condemn the
world to now unavoidable and rapidly escalating climate disruption. No more: Washington and Cook shine a bright light on
the charlatans, organizations, and funders behind the climate denial industry and on their tricks and tactics. While
climate deniers are unlikely to disappear entirely, this clear and compelling book will make it easier for the general
public to see through their tricks, and more likely that the world will move faster to take action on the most urgent
environmental problem we have ever faced.' -Dr. Peter Gleick, hydroclimatologist, Member US National Academy of
Sciences, MacArthur Fellow, President, Pacific Institute
  
  'A refusal to accept valid scientific findings
is a growing problem, and not only regarding global warming, although especially serious there. Washington and Cook
offer the best available guide to recognizing and combating such denial. Their book is compact, lucidly written, and
based on recent research in climate science, psychology and sociology. Anyone concerned with reality-based policy in any
area can profit from reading this excellent work.' -Spencer Weart, author of The Discovery of Global Warming
  
  'This book is a must have for anyone trying to understand the climate change issue. Washington and Cook use
impressive skill to peel back the lies and deceit associated with a well oiled machine, used for selling tobacco and now
selling manufactured doubt about climate change.'- Professor Ove Hoegh-Guldberg, Director of Global Change Institute,
University of Queensland
  About the Author
  
  Dr Haydn Washington is an environmental scientist of 35
years experience. Originally a plant ecologist, he worked in CSIRO on heavy metal pollution for 7 years and did his M.Sc
in that field. He later did his PhD 'The Wilderness Knot' in social ecology, looking at the tangled meanings (and
denial) around wilderness. He has worked extensively on environmental and sustainability issues. This is his fourth book
on environmental issues, and he has been researching climate change since his 1991 book 'Ecosolutions'.
  
 
John Cook studied physics at the University of Queensland, Australia. After graduating, he majored in solar physics in
his post-grad honours year. His interest in climate science began when he was given a speech by prominent 'skeptic' U.S.
senator, James Inhofe. Researching the various skeptic arguments presented by Senator Inhofe revealed many fundamental
scientific flaws. This led Cook to begin cataloguing the full range of skeptic arguments and documenting what the
peer-review science said about each topic. This work formed the basis of the skepticalscience.com website which aims to
communicate the peer-reviewed science to a broader audience.
