About this ebook
Rupert Darwall’s Green Tyranny traces the alarming origins of the green agenda, revealing how environmental scares have been deployed by our global rivals as a political instrument to contest American power around the world.
Drawing on extensive historical and policy analysis, this timely and provocative book offers a lucid history of environmental alarmism and failed policies, explaining how “scientific consensus” is manufactured and abused by politicians with duplicitous motives and totalitarian tendencies.

Scarily prescient. Anyone with half a brain will recognise and acknowledge the dangers that the green lobby seek to wreak on the public sector. Tip, if someone starts off a review with 'silly little man' you know full well he's a leftist gutless troll who I would love to meet in person

A very silly little man tries to make an argument against the bankrupcy of the coal and soon oil businesses, and why you should help buy their stranded assets.

Excellent summary of events in the last 20 years regarding environmental renewables. Abundance of citations and facts that are enlightening. Truth.
