Where to start? GLOBAL WARMING IS A RELIGION NOT A SCIENCE JUST AS GLOBAL FREEZING WAS CIRCA 1970s Global cooling was a media thing. Climatologists during that era didn't buy it. Global cooling was a conjecture during the 1970s of imminent cooling of the Earth's surface and atmosphere culminating in a period of extensive glaciation. This hypothesis had little support in the scientific community, but gained temporary popular attention due to a combination of a slight downward trend of temperatures from the 1940s to the early 1970s and press reports that did not accurately reflect the full scope of the scientific climate literature, i.e., a larger and faster-growing body of literature projecting future warming due to greenhouse gas emissions. The current scientific opinion on climate change is that the Earth has not durably cooled, but undergone global warming throughout the 20th century. [1] en.wikipedia.org WHEN IT BECAME CLEAR 10 YEARS AGO TO SOROS-GORE ET AL. That term was coined by Frank Luntz. A Republican. Although Luntz later tried to distance himself from the Bush administration policy, it was his idea that administration communications reframe " global warming" as " climate change" since "climate change" was thought to sound less severe. [15] Luntz has since said that he is not responsible for what the Bush administration did after that time. Though he now believes humans have contributed to global warming, he maintains that the science was in fact incomplete, and his recommendation sound, at the time he made it. [16] en.wikipedia.org I could go on.
