Famous Last Words (They hope You've Forgotten)

“The world’s climatologists are agreed [that we must] prepare for the next ice age.” Science Digest, February 1973


“[Glaciers] have begun to advance […] growing seasons in England and Scandinavia are getting shorter […] the North Atlantic is cooling down about as fast as an ocean can cool.” Source: “Warning: Earth’s Climate is Changing Faster Than Even Experts Expect,” The Christian Science Monitor, August 27, 1974


“A major cooling of the climate is widely considered inevitable. [The Northern Hemisphere’s climate] has been getting cooler since about 1950.” The Times, May 21, 1975
