Climate Cover Up kicking denier books all over Amazon

Jim Hoggan and Richard Littelmore's new book Climate Cover Up is putting the climate deniers' books to shame in the rankings on Amazon.com this week.

In the broad category of Environment, Climate Cover Up is sitting at #22 with only Christopher Booker's The Real Global Warming Disaster in the way of us taking the lead over all climate denier, anti-environmentalist screeds in the category.

We're out there promoting Climate Cover Up hard, but we need your help! Surprisingly, it doesn't take much.

Here's a few things you can do:

1. TWEET IT: Post a link on your Twitter account, urge people to buy a copy as a must read. Send something like: Climate Cover Up is a must-read book, even Leonardo DiCaprio thinks so! http://bit.ly/EPPXK

2.CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR "SKEPTICAL" FRIENDS: What better than Climate Cover Up for your "skeptical" friends, family and work colleagues!

3. FACEBOOK: Write a status update or message your Facebook friends about Climate Cover Up.

4. REVIEW: Write a review on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Chapters Indigo. This is a small thing that really helps build online sales.

5. SEND TO POLITICIANS: Is your representative ignoring the issue of climate change? Send them a copy of Climate Cover Up.

6. BLOG IT: If you have a blog, write about Climate Cover Up – here’s a page with all the information you need. If you don’t have a blog, send this on to any bloggers you might know who would be interested.

7. SEND TO MEDIA: If you know any media who are skeptical about the realities of climate change send a copy on to them. Or at least email them and know the book exists.

8. EMAIL: Send this newsletter on to any friends you think might be interested – especially those who are skeptical about the realities of climate change.

Here's a screenshot of the Amazon rankings to help motivate you!

About the climate cover-up

About the climate cover-up

Democracy is utterly dependent upon an electorate that is accurately informed. In promoting climate change denial (and often denying their responsibility for doing so) industry has done more than endanger the environment. It has undermined democracy.

There is a vast difference between putting forth a point of view, honestly held, and intentionally sowing the seeds of confusion. Free speech does not include the right to deceive. Deception is not a point of view. And the right to disagree does not include a right to intentionally subvert the public awareness.

Although all public relations professionals are bound by a duty to not knowingly mislead the public, some have executed comprehensive campaigns of misinformation on behalf of industry clients on issues ranging from tobacco and asbestos to seat belts.

Lately, these fringe players have turned their efforts to creating confusion about climate change. This PR campaign could not be accomplished without the compliance of media as well as the assent and participation of leaders in government and business.
