Newsweek Science Writer Looks back on Infamous 1975 “Ice Age” Piece January 13, 2014

Newsweek being Newsweek, we might have pushed the envelope a little bit more than I would have wanted,” Gwynne offered. But the story was tantalizing enough that other variations – somewhat more nuanced – were written by the New York Times and National Geographic, among others. The theory picked up support from some pretty reputable scientists: the late, esteemed Stephen Schneider of Stanford endorsed a book on the issue. But there also was a small but growing counter-theory that carbon dioxide and other pollutants accompanying the Industrial Age were creating a warming belt in the atmosphere, and by about 1980 it was clear that the earth’s average temperature was headed upward. - https://climatecrocks.com/2014/01/13/newsweek-science-writer-looks-back-on-infamous-1975-ice-age-piece/

Then there is this from Forbes: "The Fiction Of Climate Science:"

Excerpts:

Random House dutifully printed "THE WEATHER CONSPIRACY … coming of the New Ice Age."

In 1974, the National Science Board announced: "Judging from the record of the past interglacial ages, the present time of high temperatures should be drawing to an end…leading into the next ice age.",

In 2002 I stood in a room of the Smithsonian. One entire wall charted the cooling of our globe over the last 60 million years. This was no straight line. The curve had two steep dips followed by leveling. There were no significant warming periods. Smithsonian scientists inscribed it across some 20 feet of plaster, with timelines. Last year, I went back. That fresco is painted over.

The Christian Science Monitor observed that armadillos were retreating south from Nebraska to escape the "global cooling" in its Aug. 27, 1974 issue.

I do not deny there could an upward trend on overall global temps, but not as unprecedented and spelling the doom of man, and in fact many positive aspects result from warming. One being:
