Your argument is flawed.....
[quote]In the 1970s, there was a book in the popular press, a few articles in popular magazines, and a small amount of scientific speculation based on the recently discovered glacial cycles and the recent slight cooling trend from air pollution blocking the sunlight. There were no daily headlines. There was no avalanche of scientific articles. There were no United Nations treaties or commissions. No G8 summits on the dangers and possible solutions. No institutional pronouncements[/quote]
In the 1970's there was no internet. TIME and Newsweek, who both ran stories on the global cooling myth, were the major source of (written) news for much of America outside of the local paper.
To this day, the masses do not read scientific journals, they read what the popular press writes about those journals.
There can be no "avalanche" if there is no snow.Also in the 1970's there was no talk radio, and it did not occur to many Americans that the media had a left leaning agenda. Now there is another side to listen to. That's why the pace has been stepped up by the left. They are turning up the volume to drown out the other side.
The United Nations was busy actually sending forces places in the 1970's, namely the Middle East. Now they worry about myths and lies like global warming instead of sending EFFECTIVE forces to Africa to stop the slaughter. Kofi is a race-traitor, a criminal and an anti-semite.
The G8 started in 1975, with France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK, and the US only. They were not coming together to start talking about the enviorment, they were coming together to talk about macroeconomic management and international trade. That's a more recent topic for them to be taking on.
That's why there were no "summits" or "teaties" or "commissions".......
Now that everyone is so hell-bent on destroying Isreal or the United States or both, the global warming farce is a nice distraction. It demoralizes Americans who buy into it, and it's easier to control a demoralized person. It sets people up to tear down the American economy, thinking they are doing "good". It gives useless, spineless people like Al Gore an income. It breeds hate and discontent.
Most importantly, and what is the saddest thing, it removes people from WANTING to help with REAL and local enviormental problems. Rational and intelligent people who would be most "green" can't
stomach the thought of working with people who lie for a living.
