About The Book

In this controversial new book Australia's leading geologist makes the case that carbon dioxide is just one of many factors that drive climate—and a relatively insignificant one at that. Heaven and Earth engagingly and comprehensively synthesizes what we know—or think we know — about the sun, earth, ice, water, and air. Heaven and Earth is a powerful argument against many of the punitive—and expensive—laws that are now being passed to 'protect' our environment. Remember the great Alar scare of 1989? Remember when we were headed toward a New Ice Age? Remember when the Arctic was melting but the Antarctic was not? And when ethanol was the answer to everything? Ian Plimer's Heaven and Earth blows away the smoke and let's us look directly into the flame.

Raves and Reviews

This is a very powerful, clear, understandable and extremely useful book . . . [Plimer] convincingly criticizes the UN, the IPCC, U.K. and U.S. politicians, as well as Hollywood show business celebrities. He strictly distinguishes science from environmental activism, politics, and opportunism.

– Vadav Klaus, President, The European Union

... a damning critique of the 'evidence' underpinning man-made global warming.

– Kimberley A. Strassel, The Wall Street Journal

...a brilliantly argued book... Heaven and Earth is an evidence-based attack on conformity and orthodoxy, including my own, and a reminder to respect informed dissent and beware of ideology subverting evidence.

– Paul Sheehan, Sydney Morning Herald

...the best book on science and scientists I have ever read.

– Andrew Alexander, Daily Mail (UK)

Only a geological perspective can provide a proper view of climate change. Professor Plimer’s book does a masterful job of demonstrating that Nature rules the climate, not human activity.

– S. Fred Singer, Professor Emeritus of Environmental Sciences, University of Virginia

...[A] wonderfully comprehensive and fearless book... If there are any willing to hear some truly inconvenient truths on the stampeding advocacy of global warming, Mr. Plimer's book is a collection of some of the sternest.

– The Globe and Mail

...[A]rguably no one is more responsible for the shift in opinion than University of Adelaide geologist Ian Plimer, whose new book Heaven and Earth: Global Warming, the Missing Science is an authoritative scientific refutation of the claims of human-caused global warming.

– RealClearPolitics

…a bible for climate change skeptics.

– The Financial Times

For those who want to take a thinking approach to global warming untainted by politics or faith, Heaven and Earth is a worthwhile consideration.

Plimer will convince you.
