Green Tyranny: Exposing the Totalitarian Roots of the Climate Industrial Complex

“Darwall wrote Green Tyranny as a sequel to his similarly incisive 2013 book, The Age of Global Warming, specifically to expand on the critical roots of environmental ideology and power-seeking in Europe — in particular Sweden and Germany. He also records how the issues of acid rain and ‘nuclear winter’ were in many ways political trial runs for the great assault on freedom in the name of saving the world from climate change. In each case, a critical factor was the corruption of science by politicized scientists.”
–Peter Foster, Financial Post

“The book does a great service in documenting the duplicitous dealings of the Climate Industrial Complex; disrobing bogus emperors is always a worthy cause…Rupert Darwall deserves high praise for rising to the occasion and telling it like it is.”
–Juliana Geran Pilon, Israel Journal of Foreign Affairs

“Green Tyranny is a must-read for every person who cherishes freedom and who wants to know how environmentalism could become so powerful that, in some countries, it seems like a new state religion.”
–Wolfgang Müller, Acton Institute

“On a subject on which so many people’s opinions are fixed into dogma, it is valuable to have a fresh and iconoclastic voice. Looking at the history of the climate debate and what preceded it, as Rupert Darwall does, gives us a much-needed perspective, and should make us re-examine our own opinions.”
–Robert Tombs, professor of history at Cambridge Universityand author of The English and Their History

“Everything has a history. We are blessed that Rupert Darwall has eloquently linked the roots of environmental extremism to the modern assault on American exceptionalism in hydrocarbons. Darwall powerfully illuminates the reality that the climate debate is less about the future of ‘the planet’ and more of a full-on assault on hydrocarbons and democratic institutions in America’s (so far) free-market disruption of global energy markets.”
–Mark Mills, tech and energy expert and co-author of The Bottomless Well: The Twilight of Fuel, the Virtue of Waste, and Why We Will Never Run Out of Energy

“The documentary evidence provided by Darwall is irrefutable, for this is a considered, well-researched and scholarly work.”
–James Delingpole, Breitbart

“While his first book provides an account of the intellectual sources of the global warming movement from an English and American perspective, Green Tyranny focuses on the less well-known background in Sweden and Germany…It’s an impressive piece of scholarship written in a lucid style.”
–Myron Ebell, Director of the Center for Energy and Environment, Competitive Enterprise Institute

“In this new volume, his forensic rigour again puts muscle into every page.”
