Crisis or Hoax?

Jules de Waart studied physical geography and climatology at the University of Amsterdam, where he obtained his PhD. He worked for several years as an exploration geologist in Uganda and Congo (Kinshasa). After returning to the Netherlands he began a new career as a civil servant at the Ministry of Health and the Environment. Jules de Waart later became active in politics and served his party as a member of the Provincial States of North Holland and the National Parliament. He became the spokesman for environmental issues, climate and defense. He also served as Secretary of the Military Committee of the NATO Assembly. After his retirement he began studying political sciences which led him to revisit his earlier interest in physical geography and climatology. He identified a discernable global warming trend over the past 150 years and sought to understand its causes. He questioned the recent conclusions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which attributed most global warming to human emissions of greenhouse gases. He aims to provide an unbiased view of climate change, shed light on the fierce debate between alarmists and skeptics and offer suggestions for climate policy that remains effective without harming the economy. His book is intended for readers with a strong interest in climate change and environmental protection, but who question mainstream media narratives and prefer to draw their own conclusions.
