And 27 years ago, all the "reputable" scientists were screaming about the coming ice age. They even had cute little "models" and all kinds of "data"!
Yup. And now they're saying their charts and models show the earth will overheat if we don't cool it down fast enough! Not to sound facetious, but maybe our scientists should think of designing a sunscreen to put around our sun. That should cool the earth down in a jiffy!
A piece on "global cooling" can be found at http://www.globalclimate.org/Newsweek.htm (Sorry, I don't know how to do a link).
Climate experts can correct me on this, but wasn't the hottest decade of the 20th century the 1930's?
Any any case, conservatives should be extremely wary of official environmenalist dicta. The rabidly anti-capitalist greens will sound any alarm to get us out of our cars, industries, and under gub control.
