Twisted, The Distorted Mathematics of Greenhouse Denial

Twisted, The Distorted Mathematics of Greenhouse Denial

"Twisted, The Distorted Mathematics of Greenhouse Denial" is a 2007 book by Ian G. Enting, who is the Professorial Research Fellow in the ARC Centre of Excellence for Mathematics and Statistics of Complex Systems (MASCOS) based at the University of Melbourne.

The book analyses the arguments of greenhouse sceptics and the use and presentation of statistics. Enting contends there are contradictions in the various arguments of the climate change sceptics.

The author also presents calculations of the actual emission levels that would be required to stabilise CO2 concentrations. This is an update of calculations that he contributed to the pre-Kyoto IPCC report on Radiative Forcing of Climate.
