Quote from CaptainObvious:
Only 8 more years until we enter the next Ice Age. Oh, wait...
Excerpt: âThe world "could be as little as 50 or 60 years away from a disastrous new ice age, a leading atmospheric scientist predicts,â read a July 9, 1971 Washington Post article. NASA scientist S.I. Rasool, a colleague of James Hansen, made the predictions. The 1971 article continues: "In the next 50 years" â or by 2021 â fossil-fuel dust injected by man into the atmosphere "could screen out so much sunlight that the average temperature could drop by six degrees," resulting in a buildup of "new glaciers that could eventually cover huge areas." If sustained over "several years, five to 10," or so Mr. Rasool estimated, "such a temperature decrease could be sufficient to trigger an ice age."
We have been through this 15 times. The majority of climate scientists predicted global warming in the seventies. You are entitled to your opinions but your own facts.
Besides you are smart enough to know that even assuming the majority were wrong then does not mean they are wrong now. There is no comparison to the science then vs now.
