The programme failed to point out that scientists had now explained
the period of "global cooling" between 1940 and 1970. It was caused by
industrial emissions of sulphate pollutants, which tend to reflect
sunlight. Subsequent clean-air laws have cleared up some of this
pollution, revealing the true scale of global warming - a point that
the film failed to mention.



Well there's the answer to global warming then.

Another answer was mooted by some bod a few decades earlier when he
suggested seeding the oceans with iron.

Perhaps we aught to set up a petition so that the PM can send us all a
pointless reply instead of doing something useful.
