A look back at climate predictions | Eastern NC Now

Earth day is coming.

ENCNow

On the first Earth Day, April 22, 1970, the world was warned that billions would die soon because of a disastrous ice age.  The Earth had been cooling for thirty years, and it was about to get much worse.  Crops would not survive the ice age, so the people couldn't be fed.  The Earth was cooling even though CO2, the population, and fossil fuel consumption were rising rapidly, which we are told causes warming.

In 1922, this was in the Washington Post to scare the public. Again, there was no research or questions or scientific data before they published this piece.

The Arctic Ocean is warming, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot. Reports from fishermen and seal hunters all point to a change in climate conditions (global warming) and unheard of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stone, while at many points, wel- known glaciers have entirely disappeared.

Concerned Taxpayer, very true. Climate control has never been about controlling the climate, but about controlling the people, just like virus control has been about controlling the people.

The climate alarmists have made dozens of dire warnings that have already passed their ''use by date'' and not a single one of them has come true or even come remotely close to coming true. For example, in 2004, the UN warned that there would be 50 million "climate refugees" by 2010, and in fact there were NONE. The climate alarmists are Chicken Little on steroids.
