I agree that all the doom and gloom talk needs taken with a grain of salt. I am old enough to remember the first Earth Day and about that time I also read Erlichs (sp?) "The Population Bomb". Tons of dire warnings of imminent disaster.
None of it came true, yet the warnings still get great media attention. I guess no one read about the boy who cried wolf.
If an Ice Age is coming, I think it is pretty arrogant of man to think he has the power to stop it.

I am old enough to remember the first Earth DayMe too. Return of the Ice Age was the rage back then too.

According to Jimmy Carter's Global 2000 Report which I read in full from the library back in the 80's, we should all already be long dead.
