One of the leading voices in Global Warming, the East Anglia Climate Research Unit, was founded by a global cooling champion. The building they feature on their "about" page is named after the Global Cooling champion that founded it. Though he did later flip and take up global warming.

well...i actually do believe this. If we follow the past patterns based on the geologic record we are in for some brutal cold times...which will bring about a famine on a scale that is too scary to imagine.

Given this is so.....let’s all think of the money that could be made by forcing people into the investment and backing of global warming and carbon credits-— directed by the very people who have the most carbon (in all reality)— the oil world.

Remarkable- and leave it to Golden Slacks (goldman sachs) to pitch the next massive bubble and kill millions in the process.

The dodge now in all this is to call it “climate change” which of course climate has been changing for eternity and will....until our sun supernovas.

Further fun tidbits include ...

"Initial sponsors included British Petroleum, the Nuffield Foundation and Royal Dutch Shell."

Knew they would go back to Cooling. It's back and forth between "We will Burn Up!" and "We will Freeze to Death" every 20 or 30 years. Have been through these apocalyptic end points a couple of times now and I'm done with it.

Winter Storms happen in winter whether they name them or not. Hurricanes (Atlantic) and Typhoons (Pacific) happen in their seasons long before someone said "Global Warming".

We have better forecasts and better warnings than ever before and folks use them to promote panic constantly these days.

Enough for me, I'm done.

There's a new Ice Age Coming

I figured as much, and the Socialist will require the Serf to be ignorant and unprepared.

Future liberals will have voted themselves the privilege of watching their children freeze to death.

It is a crying shame that science has become as corrupt as politics thanks to the money which can be redistributed by scare tactics.

If you give me free reign to select any two points in global history, I can give you proof positive of global cooling or global warming. Just tell me what you want and which will generate the most number of dollars extorted by fear.

Actually, we’re in the same old Ice Age and awaiting a fresh glaciation - we’re just enjoying our inter-glacial breather...

Well Europe has a problem this year getting out of winter. Moscow just had its biggest March snow storm in 50 years. And Spain just got hit with March snow. And Switzerland had record cold this winter. Eventually the interglacial will stop and we will be back to the glacial.

The US and Euro governments will be back on the Global Cooling bandwagon just as soon as they can figure out a way to construct a fiscal financial bubble based upon the global cooling catastrophe.

Oh, I don’t think the earth has that long before the Judgment. The godless should be more concerned about spending eternity in the fires of Hell.

Hotter...colder...dryer...wetter...sunnier....cloudier,it doesn't matter.It's "Climate Change"...caused by humans...and the only solution is for *us* (and not the Chinese) to commute on pogo sticks and get our electricity from cow dung.

The civilized,industrialized world (The US,Europe,Japan and several other nations/regions) could outlaw the internal combustion engine and shut down every power plant fueled by oil,gas and coal tomorrow and,within a month,China would replace the "pollution" that's missing by opening up 50 coal fired power plants and opening 2,000 dirty,filthy factories.

I've been to China...several times...recently.The clearest day I saw there was 50 times worse than the very worst day I've ever seen in Southern California.It's every bit as bad as the foggiest day I've ever seen in London except in China it's *pollution*,not fog,that's to blame.

It would have been good of you to put “1972” in the title so that Freepers wouldn’t be misled. Reading the responses to your post, it appears that some were misled.
