Unsettled What Climate Science Tells Us, What It Doesn't, and Why It Matters Steven E. Koonin

https://amzn.to/4aLjzDPClimate activists have misled the public into thinking there’s proof that our actions have led to global warming and possible climate catastrophe, according to former energy industry scientist Steven E. Koonin. On the contrary, Koonin argues that the facts about climate change are far from certain.In his 2021 book, Unsettled, Koonin concedes that the climate is warming and humans are partially responsible for this warming. However, he contends that the evidence is overstated and climate scientists’ predictions are based on unreliable models. In turn, public misconceptions about climate change abound and the proposed solutions to climate change are unlikely to succeed.In this guide, we’ll discuss Koonin’s assessment of climate science and its conclusions, in addition to his critique of prominent responses to climate change and his proposed alternative responses. Throughout this guide, we’ll also consider counterarguments from climate scientists and updates to climate science since Unsettled’s publication.
