    Ivo Vegter was on the Premier Show on 2oceansvibe Radio on Friday to talk about his new book, Extreme Environment.

    Could this be one of the most controversial books of 2012?

    That’s what some are saying.

    Here’s the skinny on the book:

    Extreme Environment promises to provoke fresh – and spirited – debate about the modern environmental movement and the many ways in which environmentalism, media, economics, public policy and the politics of liberty intersect. In order to reduce poverty and continue to raise living standards, a sensible, balanced approach to a healthy productive environment is required. No country, but especially not those in the developing world, can afford to be manipulated by the self-interested moralising and alarmism perpetrated by some special interest groups. Exaggeration by environmentalists, many journalists and even some scientists causes undue fear and anxiety among those who don’t already dismiss the green lobby for crying wolf. Worse, misinformation affects regulation and policymaking in ways that actively harm developing economies.

    Obviously you can expect Ivo to address the controversial topic of fracking, but he also discusses hunting and climate change, amongst others.

    Ivo chatted to Bruce from The Premier Show on Friday about his latest controversial book. Listen to the podcast below:
