Global Warming
In a series of articles and a companion book published in 2008, The Deniers, Solomon writes about scientists whose views and research, according to Solomon, contradicts what he calls the alarmist view of global warming presented by Al Gore, the IPCC, the media and the consensus of thirty four National Academies of Science . The book featured on C-SPAN's Book TV on May 11, 2008. Reviews of the book have appeared in the Washington Times, Vancouver Sun, Alternatives Journal, and other publications.
In December, 2008, an executive from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Institute for 21st Century Energy sponsored a debate about global warming between Lawrence Solomon and Dr. Jay Gulledge of the Pew Center on Global Climate Change, who took the opposite view. Solomon's blog has been mentioned in U.S. News & World Report's website concerning carbon emissions reduction legislation.
