The big green lie

di Nicola Porro (Autore)

Liberilibri, 2025

Is Arctic ice shrinking? False. Is the number of deaths due to natural disasters on the rise? False. Do the data indicate an increase in extreme events? False. Do forecasts herald some planetary catastrophe in the near future? False. Underlying these widespread misconceptions is an arbitrary and instrumental use of science by green propaganda, which points the finger at Western society and its development model, alleged culprits of climate change. Nicola Porro collects the research of some authoritative specialists (physicists, geologists, climatologists, meteorologists but also economists and engineers) showing that there is no unanimity among experts around climate change, especially on the role and influence of humans. As a leading communicator, the author points out that the issue has now passed into the hands of the media making it impossible to combat with scientific method. A narrative that has established itself, on the one hand, as a kind of ecological faith and, on the other hand, as the major economic and political interest of our time: the green. This book was overdue because it finally gives voice to those scientists, and their studies, too often silenced in a public debate dominated by a single opinion that, instead of reasoning based on data, demands total consensus more akin to religious dogma than to the reality of the facts.
