Air Con by Ian Wishart – A provocative investigation into climate change claims.
Air Con by Ian Wishart is a controversial, best-selling book that challenges mainstream narratives around global warming and climate policy. Written by an investigative journalist known for questioning official accounts, the book sets out to examine whether climate change is happening as claimed, whether humans are truly responsible, and what is really driving global political action on emissions.
Wishart frames Air Con around the enormous financial and social costs of climate agreements, particularly those proposed under international treaties such as a successor to the Kyoto Protocol. He argues that ordinary taxpayers face rising taxes and higher costs for food, fuel and everyday goods, and asks whether the scientific case justifies those sacrifices.
The book tackles five core questions: whether global warming is occurring, whether it is man-made, whether it can realistically be stopped, whether climate scientists and the United Nations are being fully transparent, and what political or economic interests sit behind global climate agreements. Wishart draws on scientific papers, historical climate data and dissenting expert opinions to build his case.
Despite its heavy subject matter, Air Con is written in clear, accessible language, with chapter titles designed to keep the tone engaging and readable. It is aimed at everyday readers rather than academics.
This book is best suited to readers who value critical thinking, want to hear alternative perspectives on climate science, or are sceptical of international climate policy and its economic impact.
