In recognition of Banned Books Week 2007, Lamson Library is featuring a series of books that challenge our beliefs and test our commitment to free speech.

An Inconvenient Truth: the Planetary Emergency of Global Warming and What We Can Do About It by Al Gore. In the former Vice President’s second book on global warming, Gore writes, “…there is at least one absolutely indisputable fact: Not only does human caused global warming exist, but it is also growing more and more dangerous, and at a pace that has now made it a planetary emergency.”

The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming (and Environmentalism) by Christopher C. Horner. Horner, an attorney and senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, claims in this 2007 publication that “…although Al Gore and his cronies among the media elites and UN globalists endless bleat that ‘global warming’ is an unprecedented crisis, they really think of it as a dream come true. It’s the ideal scare campaign for those who hate capitalism and love big government.”
