In the 1970s we were told that all the lakes in the Adirondacks were going to be forever sterile because of the Sulfur Dioxide put out by all those coal fired power plants in OH/PA. They would never have fish in them again, EVER.
This was around the same time(1977-78) that we were told about the coming Ice Age because the blizzard we had in Buffalo and then in Boston the next winter.
Then just recently, we were told how Fracking was bad. It would contaminate the ground water. So, NY banned the practice. Another reason why I am so glad I moved to NH in 1985.
some people, for reasons I don’t understand, love to predict doom. i guess it makes them feel important.
why was chicken little the way he was?
