***”On global cooling,” he writes, “there was never anything even remotely approaching the current scientific consensus that the world is growing warmer because of the emission of greenhouse gases.” ***

If it’s concensus, it ain’t scientific. Science deals with FACT, not concensus.

[saganite]

The truth is that global warming would be far more benevolent to mankind than global cooling.

[P-40]

Meacham dismisses it. "On global cooling," he writes,

What a poor answer. If he wanted to make a better case he could have started the discussion off with something like the first weather satellites were just getting going in 1974 (approx) or something like that. That would have made for a much better argument.

To steal from Dennis Miller.......

we are talking about 1.8 degrees over 100 years...

does anyone else find that to be remarkably stable?

I sure as hell do.

It’s about a Fabian Socialist agenda. Evidence and facts mean nothing. Mis-leading the Sheeple means everything.

"The greatest dangers to liberty," Justice Louis Brandeis wrote, "lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding."

Global warming enthusiasts are "nen of zeal", to be sure. And clearly "without understanding".

But "well-meaning"? I'm not so sure...

There are the power-trippers, the crooks and the dupes. Which, do you suppose, is Algore...???

Even the worst characterizations of McCarthy by the Left are minimal compared to the fundamentalist, jihad like religious fervor of the warm-mongers. In rhetoric at least, and thankfully not action, they are rapidly approaching demanding adherence to dogma unseen since the Spanish Inquisition.

[longtermmemmory]

NOT ONE MENTION of the NASA temperature manipulation and coverup scandal.

I am so tired of this fake “issue”.

...simply brushes aside the 1975 report as "alarmist" and "discredited."

As opposed to today's hysteria??? Anyone here an echo of "WOLF!" ???

[G8 Diplomat]

[aruanan]

Yet Meacham, quoting none of this, simply brushes aside the 1975 report as "alarmist" and "discredited." Today, he assures his readers, Newsweek's climate-change anxieties rest "on the safest of scientific ground." Do they?

No, because Meacham is just a lying S.O.S..

[SunkenCiv]

"On global cooling," he writes, "there was never anything even remotely approaching the current scientific consensus that the world is growing warmer because of the emission of greenhouse gases." ...in 1975... the magazine reported that scientists were "almost unanimous" in believing that the looming Big Chill would mean a decline in food production, with some warning that "the resulting famines could be catastrophic." Moreover, it said, "the evidence in support of these predictions" -- everything from shrinking growing seasons to increased North American snow cover -- had "begun to accumulate so massively that meteorologists are hard-pressed to keep up with it." Yet Meacham, quoting none of this, simply brushes aside the 1975 report as "alarmist" and "discredited."

Meachum is discredited, Newsweek is (twice) discredited, and -- you guessed it -- The Debate Is Over. ;') Thanks RC.

How can there be a consensus when they cannot get the correct temperature data on which to base it. NASA and NOAA can’t agree as to which was the warmest year in the contiguous 48 states.

[Kirkwood]

I remember being told in college in the mid 70s that we were going to run out of food and fuel by 1990 and we would have to evacuate the northern half of North America because glaciers would cover it. This is the same class in which I pissed off Linus Pauling who said we were all going to die from nuclear war because Edward Teller was promoting a first strike on the soviets.
