A historical review appears to be in order, as is so often the case when faux science raises it’s head in truly religious fervor. Indeed, I about had a hernia laughing when I found this, after all, I remember all to well the dribble that was spewing from the academic pulpits back then.
Here are my questions: In 1970, when environmentalists were making predictions of manmade global cooling and the threat of an and millions of Americans starving to death, what kind of government policy should we have undertaken to prevent such a calamity? When Ehrlich predicted that would not exist in the year 2000, what steps should the British Parliament have taken in 1970 to prevent such a dire outcome? In 1939, when the U.S. Department of the Interior warned that we only had oil supplies for another 13 years, what actions should President Roosevelt have taken? Finally, what makes us think that environmental alarmism is any more correct now that they have switched their tune to manmade global warming
