Lawrence Joseph-Apocalypse 2012: An Investigation Into Civilization’s EndApocalypse 2012: An Investigation Into Civilization’s End



Over the past twenty five years, Lawrence E. Joseph has written on science, nature, politics and business on five continents for publications including The New York Times (Magazine, Op-Ed), Discover, Salon.com, and has also authored a number of books, detailed below.
Apocalypse 2012: An Investigation into Civilization’s End, published by Broadway/Random House in January, 2007, hardcover, and January, 2008, paperback, is a personal exploration of a strange coincidence, that both ancient Mayan prophecy and contemporary solar physics indicate that the year 2012 will be pivotal, perhaps catastrophic. What if there is some significance to this coincidence? The book examines a range of scenarios concerning civilization-threatening cataclysms that may well occur in 2012 or thereabouts. Apocalypse 2012 has sold more than 100,000 copies in 21 languages and editions.



“The governments of the world have adopted Climatism and discarded reality. Acres of solar cells sit idle at night and on cloudy days. Thousands of 300-foot-high wind towers interrupt the vistas of coastline, field, and hill, standing motionless for two-thirds of their existence. Thirty percent of America’s corn crop is burned up on U.S. highways, while people in developing nations struggle to get enough to eat. Billions of dollars in government subsidies are spent each year to fund solar, wind, and biofuel industries, which could not compete and would not exist without these subsidies. Yet, these renewable sources supply only a pitifully small amount of the world’s energy needs. All this in the absurd attempt to control a trace gas and stop global warming.”

—Climatism!, Chapter 13
