The award is very timely and will likely boost sales of the soon-to-be-released publication ‘Sky Dragon Slayers Victory Lap‘ – the world’s most detailed full-volume book debunking the greenhouse gas theory, the cornerstone of the science of  ‘man-made global warming.’

Dr Latour’s startling revelations about atmospheric carbon dioxide features prominently in the new book. *

    Marquis Who’s Who seems dubious at best.

    Dr Latour attended the Larry Bell sponsored lectures by Lukewarmist Fred Singer and the Heartland ICCC-9 Lukewarmist Love Fest in Las Vegas. Dr Latour holds multiple patents on refinery detection and processing, where CO2 is both a reactant and a byproduct under conditions that far exceed atmospheric forces. Understanding the thermal and chemical characteristics of CO2 is critical in this industry, which is vital to civilization. I instinctively reject “appeal to authority” but make an exception for Dr Latour, a learned and honest educator for these times.
