Rating: - A valuable, eye-opening contribution to the environmental debate
Murray's work, "The Really Inconvenient Truths: Seven Environmental Catastrophes Liberals Don't Want You to Know About--Because They Helped Cause Them", does a superb job of revealing the deep interplay of politics in the environmental debate. Murray illustrates, through sources readily available but often bypassed by mainstream media, how environmentalists distort the truths they purport to represent, and how politics guides which causes they select to represent or ignore. My eyes were opened reading about documented genetic damage caused by hormones flushed into the water supply via millions of birth control pills. The media silence on that issue is scandalous, but unsurprising given the implications of a genuine investigation into the problem.

Murray shows methodically how politicians subverted genuine experts with policies disguised as public-interest management that, while achieving political aims, also resulted in a river set on fire, national parks transformed into tinderboxes and lakes dried into deserts. When the consequences arrived, Murray shows these same politicians (and their allied "environmental groups") manipulated public opinion to twist responsibility onto industry -- often industry whose practices were dictated by the politicians' "public interest" policies.

It's a pity Murray didn't include Love Canal in his work. The granddaddy of the Environmental Superfund is a textbook rendition of how state officials, pursuing naked political ambition, overran the safety efforts of a chemical company, then blamed their own disaster on the company that tried to stop them. Perhaps Murray will get to that in volume 2. Until then, this work will have you running from every giant "Green" government initiative, clutching desperately to your wallet, while seeing state "protection" policies in a new, more realistic light.

This is an outstanding read for a technical person. Sums things up well. Sometimes was a little repetitive but when your finished the info is in your head.

I found this book brings balance to the whole Global Warming debate.
The facts and arguments presented in the book are not often, if at all, mentioned in the main stream press.
It is compelling reading for anyone wanting to fully understand the complete truth on this very important subject.
It exposes some of the hypocrisy and flawed science behind the push on Global Warming, (now called climate change)

Rating: - the really inconvenient truths
The Author makes very sound arguments as to the underlying reasons liberals have such an intense disdain for anything that is contrary to their position. When real truth is held up and given a fair stage onto which to expound its arguments, honest logic prevails. After all real truth is meant to set us free, and any censorship of that or intentional manipulation of such should sour any reader association to that element. The author has done us all a great service by letting us have a peek at what really motivates the liberal mentality
