Climate Basics: Nothing to Fear
#1 Weather 14 weeksAfraid of the future? Don’t be. When we’re armed with the basic facts of climate, we can more easily spot the lies that the corrupt, corporate news media is trying to feed us. Some of those lies are huge.
This small book gives us everything the layman needs to know about climate science.
The warming alarmists attempt to frighten us with things like,Global warming will result in more violent storms.Global warming will give us more deserts and droughts.Global warming is dangerous.Carbon dioxide is driving our dangerous global warming.We urgently need to cool down the planet.Carbon dioxide is a dangerous pollutant.The future looks bleak unless we drastically reduce our “carbon footprint.”
This slender volume sets the record straight on all of the above issues.
There are concerns for the future, but none of these are it. And when we have real problems to face, it does no good to be fixing things that don’t need it.
Book 1 of the Climate Basics series. For Book 2, see Deserts & Droughts

About the author
Rod Martin Jr.
37 books8 followersRod Martin has been a bestselling author (Climate Basics), a college professor, a software engineer with a summa cum laude degree, and a Hollywood artist with screen credit.
Martin downplays the fact that his own IQ resides in the top 1%, citing imagination and humility as far more important qualities in effective intelligence.
He has written more than 20 books in his own pen names (Carl Martin for fiction) on a broad range of topics, including science, philosophy, spirituality, self-help, history, politics and the basis of ancient myths. Additionally, he has ghostwritten more than 60 books for his clients on topics including artificial intelligence, interplanetary space missions, geological periods (Jurassic, Cretaceous and others), numerous self-help books (time management, self-confidence building, Law of Attraction, solving procrastination, converting bad habits into good ones), several books on religion and spirituality (Kundalini Yoga, Buddhism, angels), and nearly a dozen books on ancient myth and legend (Roman, Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Celtic).
Having worked for Bank of America, Control Data, Ceridian Payroll Services, Global Database Marketing, and IPRO Tech, Martin has contributed to the business world with educational materials, training seminars, marketing collateral and even one business book on the fashion industry. He has also created business software as well as his own 3D astronomy package, “Stars in the NeighborHood.”
His unique ability to see patterns in nature and society has allowed him to discover many breakthrough ideas, including the fact that nature “invented” tank circuits billions of years before humans did -- a fact he realized while studying electronic engineering in the 1970s. Tank circuits allow for the broadcast and receiving of radio signals; atoms have done this since the beginning of physical matter, because they are naturally both coils and capacitors.
Martin has also discovered 3 items in science, each from a different scientific discipline, which suggest that an Atlantis-like event occurred 9620 BC -- right when Plato’s lost island empire supposedly succumbed to the sea. Upon further study in several branches of science, Martin discovered a broad array of evidence supporting Plato’s story. Details may be found in his book, Mission: Atlantis.
In the realm of spirituality and religion, Martin discovered several items of wisdom hidden in the Bible, revealing God’s purpose for Noah’s Flood, the target of the Flood, and a biblical timeline compatible with those of science. Details may be found in his book, The Bible’s Hidden Wisdom: God’s Reason for Noah’s Flood.
Also in spirituality, Martin has discovered four traits of God that allow for miracles to happen. This is the basis for how prayer works and why it seems to some that prayers frequently don’t work, when they actually do. Details may be found in his books, The Art of Forgiveness, The Science of Miracles, and Proof of God.
In the realm of climate science, Martin readily admits that he had bought into the lies of Al Gore and the UN’s IPCC. Caring about our world is always a good thing, but getting the facts wrong about our world is not recommended. When he discovered that Al Gore and he had been horribly wrong, Martin revisited the basics of climate science and wrote his #1 weather bestseller, Climate Basics: Nothing to Fear, still only 99 cents as an ebook.

There is literally nothing new in this religious tract pamphlet that is not found on many thousands of anti-science pro-conspiracy Free Market Justice Warrior web sites for free reading. The writer would have us believe that all of the world's geophysicists in the world for the past 170+ years have been lying to us because... because... well, "just because." That includes Ronald Reagan lying to us about human-caused climate change, Bush1 lying to us about human-caused climate change, Bush2 lying to us about human-caused climate change, the USA Pentagon and NATO and the NSA and the NAS all lying to us about human-caused climate change.
The writer rejects the very laws of physics, calling the laws of physics "liberals." Creepy, that. The FMJW writer is clueless when it comes to climatology and the physics involved.
The writer has claimed, falsely, that:
1) extreme weather events have not increased (it is a demonstrable fact, tediously and competently measured, that extreme weather events are increasing in number and severity);
2) more droughts have not happened (they have, and are now worse);
3) the major and catastrophic warming of Earth and the destruction of the climate due to warming is not a bad thing (it is already demonstrably bad);
4) CO2 does not drive the current global temperature anomaly (it does, and nothing else can be found to explain the warming);
5) Earth is cooling (it is not);
6) the current level of atmospheric CO2 is not "near dangerous levels" (we passed that level years ago);
7) claimed that he alone, though he has no education in the subject, has stated the most likely changes to come in the near future regarding the changed and changing climate.
Absolutely nothing presented by the writer is supported by the evidence. Nothing what the writer claimed has happened and is happening is supported by evidence, and many of his assertions are contrary to the laws of physics.
Skip this pile of dung.

Wow. That was mind blowing. For someone who doesn't have any clue in climate, that was very helpful and really easy to understand. I hope to read Martin's other books 'cause this one was great.

This bloke has zero climate credentials
I'd love to believe this book. The author advocates that climate change is being created by the media to earn money. But its written in a way that it doesn't look at the whole picture, suggesting that co2 rises is actually a good thing because we are in an ice age and the world is cooler. It doesn't explore greenhouse gases, the loss of biodiversity due to the pace of the change of the CO2 rising and how our ecosystems cannot cope. Its basically as close to fake news as it could get.

great factual overview of climate issues
As per the science referenced in this book, CO2 is not the threat we have been led to believe. It is a critical component of the lifecycles of plants, without which all life on earth would die. The facts are pretty clear once you look at the data.

Nice and concise read on the basics to climate and what the alarmists have wrong.
