I taught earth science, including climates, to seventh graders in the 1970s. Al Gore's joke of a book, "Earth in the Balance" had just come out. Even then, the MSM displayed the incredible lack of journalistic integrity that they are now known for. There was no effort to get input from real scientists. (Think about it. For medical and healthcare issues, they will bring in medical experts, even have them on staff. Have you ever seen them bring in a climatologist to discuss climates?)

The joke is, Al had reported that we would have an ice age within 100 years (of 1975), and in every science class I had students asking me if an ice age was coming, all because of Al's book, and the noncritical reporting on it by 'journalists'. And it has just gotten increasingly absurd from there.

People have discussed the cost of all this absurdity, and it is huge. People should consider where all that money is going. That money is making others wealthy. Long ago, Al gore put himself in the middle of a 'carbon credit' rip-off scheme that makes him, and others, HUGE money, in return for which we Americans get nothing. Well, we do get something, we get screwed.
