As a concerned planetary inhabitant, I found this a refreshing look at our current circumstances. I have grown sick of the alarmists, “we only have 15 years…” and the deniers, “it’s all a big hoax…”. The author has not only lived and covered earth ecology for his entire career, he puts out truthful and factual evidence that shows the situation.

I particularly enjoyed the second half of the book where some reasonably cogent solutions are presented with good arguments how they will work.

I remain concerned about the human impact on the earth’s environment but optimistic that with clear thinkers like Sir David Attenborough we will solve this issue and move on to the next.

The narration is strong and understandable. The message is beyond inspiring and useful if the direction is followed closely.

A necessary listen for anyone interested in the Law of Attraction and science/religion interface.

A must read (listen) for learning how to excite your imagination. At times a bit wordy but necessarily so. Repetition is key to a most thorough understanding.

I read Atlas Shrugged when I was in high school, many years ago...more than I care to say.....it makes me feel old!!! I remembered it being very good but since I wasn't exposed to so many political views at the time, I now see I couldn't have possibly understood some of what was being exposed.

Many years later I love the title even more. So many valuable ideas are conveyed that it boggles the mind. The first 5 to 5 and a half chapters are a great lead in to the remainder of the book. When I hit chapter 6 I really couldn't listen to anything else until I was done. My regular podcast and personal development audio programs took a back seat to Atlas Shrugged.

The narration was excellent and the sound quality superb. An enjoyable experience for anyone wanting to get some exposure to a more libertarian viewpoint. I highly recommend it to almost anyone.

An excellent assessment of how climate change is occurring and the myths about how & why. The debunking of so many climate exaggerations and fear exploitation make this book an absolute necessity for anyone trying to get a comprehensive view of the climate issues.

I would recommend that anyone who is convinced that we are the sole contributors to a changing climate take the time to at least see another point of view.

Thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommended!!!

A Decent Read Despite the Partisan View

There’s a lot of good, new & enlightening information. Overall I found it worthwhile so instead of an in depth review, I’ll just mention a few flaws that are fairly obvious to me.

I nearly quit in Chapter 2 when the author cites “The Atlantic” as one of his sources of information. I thought he may then cite a 1982 Reader’s Digest, one is as reliable as the other. Kind of a “hack move” as far as I’m concerned.

The display of the partisanship is more obvious in later chapters where he seems to focus on how bad the “right wing media” is while neglecting the same bias exists on the left. I understand this as it needs to relate to Trump and that’s where his base is at.

Since this was written prior to the current political season I understand why he goes in the direction I’m about to point out. It is assumed that because of his demonstrable lies and fact exaggerations that he is unfit for office. I posit that if that is the case, Biden is similarly unfit (not withstanding his clear cognitive issues). The entire Biden/Harris campaign platform is full of demonstrable lies and exaggerations. Again, understandable based on when it was written as well as the point that is being made.

My friends consider me to be one of the most unbiased people about the current political climate. I stay well informed and watch both “left” & “right” news and read a wide variety of publications. I am always willing to point out to them when they make false claims about Trump but also support them when they’re correct.

I can see where some people who are deeply Trump “centric” could be in “the cult” especially when they refuse to gather both sides of an issue. I liken Trump more to a “boy’s club leader” (I do use “boy’s” for the reason of how he communicates with his base) and the club members are people who were bullied or belittled at some time and they find it delightful to be on what they consider “the cool kid’s side”.

So, that’s my two cents worth and I do hope it’s useful to someone. I thought it to be useful but would make one final observation. If you are fully a Trump fan and don’t think he can be wrong, don’t waste your time, it’ll only piss you off. Likewise, if you despise Trump, all you’ll see and pick out of the content are the reasons to support your point of view.

Hope this helps.....enjoy the read!
