The Parrot and the Igloo: Climate and the Science of Denial by David Lipsky
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I am really not finished yet. I am at 99%, but I wanted to write this review before closing the laptop.
This is highly political, but David Lipsky seems to have no favorites. He has much to say about the denial on both sides of the aisle. I love science, but this proves how human ambition can kill science and the people who would benefit most from knowing the answers, however they proved.
Mike Chamberlain (Narrator) did a reasonably good job reading the book, but there wasn’t much to work with. It seemed the thing I hated most about this book was how the author chose to pretty up the story with words or illustrations that seemed to entertain him. I found these annoying, and it took me out of the story he was trying to tell. Not to say this is fiction. It was history in light of science and politics.
There are various opinions about this book in the reviews. Maybe you will love it? Or not? Try for yourself to see.
