Video: Climate Deniers Love the 70s
Peter Sinclair’s latest “remixed” video (an improved version of an earlier release) deals with another climate change deniers’ claim that keeps coming up over and over — that scientists believed the Earth was “cooling” in the 1970s. The reason it keeps popping up: it’s supposed to convince you that climate scientists were wrong when they said the Earth was cooling, so they’re probably wrong again when they say the Earth is warming.
But this whole meme is simply wrong. There was no scientific consensus that the Earth was entering an ice age. And you can blame the media for creating this false impression.
