The idiocy of the whole thing is written in the text on that sign. They admit that the "small alpine glaciers" did not exist 7,000 years ago and formed because of the "Little Ice Age" which ended about "1850."

It also references the Big Ice Age, without naming it such, as the Pleistocene Era (AKA the Glacial Period as opposed to the Inter-Glacial Period that has existed for the last 12,000 years) when the serious glaciation existed from 130k years ago until 12k years ago.

IOWS the "small alpine glaciers" of the "Little Ice Age" are the anomaly not the disappearance of them. A lack of glaciers is the norm for an Inter-Glacial period.

I remember Huntley-Brinkley. I was young but my parents watched them at dinner. I seem to recall Brinkley (later at ABC) seemed a pretty fair and balanced sort.

" I wonder how many others remember the Huntley-Brinkley report on NBC."

My step-mother read an article in Reader's Digest that told her that more than an hour of TV per day was bad for kids. Since my step-brother was sorta slow, guess what? Proof of concept.

I wasn't going to let two old, boring, guys cut into the small window of watching I had.

"That was back in the day when they reported the news and not opinion."

It WAS opinion, but you had no independent way to check it.

They told us the science is settled. Anyone who agrees with this new position of the National Park Service must now be added to the list of climate deniers.

Didnt have to have an independent way to source it.

It was good journalism. But, it changed during the late 60s-IE the hippy generation.

Surprising they didn’t secretly just change the year over and over again. They just admitted their stupidity

yes, yes it was settled. But the denialist glaciers never would buy into the scientific consensus.
