“A brief and lucid survey of the history of climate-change politics in Canada ... the issues and the options are clearly, almost elegantly, spelled out.”
— Winnipeg Free Press
“A clear and concise picture of Canada's political position regarding climate change ... gives the crucial facts about climate change without being overly alarmist. The book is informative and empowering.”
— Lethbridge Herald
“Robert Paehlke ... has undertaken the heroic task of stitching together a quilt that reflects this diverse nation and its political, scientific and business response to this regional and global issue. ... A long essay about knowing your place in history before it slips away.”
— Alternatives Journal
“An informative and impassioned wake-up call to those who still believe there’s ample time to act on critical environmental issues.”
— Quill & Quire
“More than simply an indictment of Canada’s “world class ambivalence” on global warming, Some Like It Cold assesses why our political system has thus far failed so spectacularly to deal with climate change. . . While the federal government talks about being an energy superpower, Paehlke gets at what it would mean for us, and our neighbours, if we were to act like one.”
— Keith Stewart, World Wildlife Fund-Canada
"An exciting, incisive, and disturbing analysis of the massive climate policy failure in
Canada. Climate change is the defining policy issue for Canada today and Paehlke shows the urgent need for action now."
— Robert Page, TransAlta Professor of Environmental Management and Sustainability, University of Calgary
