“What is global warming?   “Do you think it’s possible to reduce carbon dioxide?  ” “How big are your cars and your houses?  ”.  We can read these questions in this book by Michael Crichton. He deemed that the majority of people are insensible.  Therefore, the theory of global warming, the temperature of the Earth was raising, was exploited by some extreme environmentalists, media and politicians.  Furthermore, these people made lot of horrible events as earthquakes, tsunamis and floods to cause people to live in state of fear in order to grab huge benefit.

At the beginning, this book describes that the extreme environmentalists need huge financial support, so they did many unethical actions.  The most disgustful one I’ve chosen is they used the octopus to paralysis some people in order to steal anything they want.  Then they bounded a check to buy a lot of hi-tech instruments which were executed under the sea.  Thereupon a millionaire, George, disappeared after he was threatened by the chief.  Afterword his attorney Evens and his secretary Sarah were raided by unknown persons.  Luckily, they were saved by the two supermen, Kenner and Sanjong.  These four people wanted to prevent the terror agendas occurred again so they went to many remote places and face a lot of lethal threats.  The most savage one is that they met the cannibalisms to grasp them because they prepared to eat their preys alive in a feast.

This book caused serious debates because it implied these environmentalists are terrorists.  In my opinion, I do not know whatever the temperature is rising or not.  But I totally agree that people cannot do lots of stupid actions to try to change the world. In other words, people cannot control the nature.  Additionally, We never know how titanic the counterforce of the nature is.
