Those damn scientists! When will they ever learn heh?

Corporate sponsored think-tanks and conservative journos know best.

So Reid Bryson is not a scientist then?

With emphasis on the "a"....

There was no "Global Cooling" Hysteria in 1970P: You're simply
recycling Exxon-funded lies, as usual.

======================================




ROTFLMAO
So these scientists are a figment of the imagination then?

You snipped the bit that disproves your lies, so it is clear that your
imagination does indeed have a large part in your non-sensical
gibberish:

"The supposed "global cooling" consensus among scientists in the 1970s
— frequently offered by global-warming skeptics as proof that
climatologists can't make up their minds — is a myth, according to a
survey of the scientific literature of the era."

"Thomas Peterson of the National Climatic Data Center surveyed dozens
of peer-reviewed scientific articles from 1965 to 1979 and found that
only seven supported global cooling, while 44 predicted warming.
Peterson says 20 others were neutral in their assessments of climate
trends.

The study reports, "There was no scientific consensus in the 1970s
that the Earth was headed into an imminent ice age.

"A review of the literature suggests that, to the contrary, greenhouse
warming even then dominated scientists' thinking about the most
important forces shaping Earth's climate on human time scales.""
