Government started it. All the global warming scientists are government paid to say “man is causing global warming” so that government can play the savior role.
Back in 1970s they called it Global Cooling.
Then on Coast to Coast one new year’s eve, they did their usual show about predictions in the near future. Callers, who had ESP, supposedly, talked of global warming, and ice caps melting, and US flooding. This was in the 1990s to early 2000s. I told my daughter, laughingly, don’t bother to graduate from high school... she grad in 2001... the US will be under water by then. It was all a big joke, Coast to Coast callers all trying to outdo each other. I assume Al Gore heard this show and thought it was true! LOL That is where it all started.
We have lived in this area for 42 years and our weather patterns are the same now as in 1973...
