The Alarmist

Fifty Years Measuring Climate Change

About this book

A lifetime spent measuring the atmosphere reveals the stark reality of climate change.

For fifty years, Kiwi scientist Dave Lowe has tracked carbon in the atmosphere, collecting vital data that revealed the truth about our planet's future. From his early days on a shoestring budget to international collaborations, Lowe's journey is one of scientific discovery and personal commitment.

The Alarmist chronicles Lowe's career, marked by both hope and despair, as he grapples with the implications of his findings. This environmental history explores:

  • The science behind climate change
  • The challenges of communicating urgent findings
  • The ongoing battle between alarmists and deniers
Discover the story of a man who dedicated his life to understanding our changing world, and the lessons we must learn to protect it. Perfect for readers interested in environmental science and climate action.
