Before Global Warming, Global Cooling.
The Guardian November 20, 1974 "The threat of a new ice age must now stand alongside nuclear war as new source of death and misery for mankind."
The Guardian. January 29, 1974 Heading. "Satellites Show New Ice Age is Coming Fast."
Science News. March 1st, 1975. "The Ice Age Cometh."
Newsweek. April 28, 1975. "There are ominous signs that the earth's weather patterns have begun to change dramatically, and that these changes will portend a drastic decline in food production. The evidence in support of thee predictions has started to accumulate so massively that meteorologists are hard pressed to keep up with them.
Climatologists are pessimistic that political leaders will take any positive action to compensate for climate change and it's effects. They propose that covering the polar ice caps with soot may prevent global cooling."
Brisbane Courier Mail, Jan 10, 1871, responding to three consecutive years of severe drought. "Every season is said to be extraordinary. Every month, the wettest, or driest, or windiest, or hottest, or coldest, ever known. Much observation, which should correct a tendency to exaggerate, seems in the minds of some, a tendency to completely exaggerate it."
