Climate of Fear

Conventional wisdom says that global warming is a serious problem. And many people believe the answer to that problem is stringent government regulation - regulation that would lower productivity and standards of living around the world. In Climate of Fear: Why We Shouldn't Worry about Global Warming, Thomas Gale Moore argues that in this case, as in so many others, conventional wisdom is wrong. If global warming were to occur, it would not be the disaster that many doomsayers have predicted. Instead, most people would actually benefit from the slightly higher temperatures it would produce.
