Re: 1977 Ice Age Scare
Why would the end of the Holocene be expected to be monotonic? The little ice age could easily be seen as a prelude, then the 70's, but with the sun going quiet, the ocean cycles turning negative, and an added 300 more years to the Earth's Milankovitch cycles pushing for the end of the Holocene, this could be when the tumblers line up for initiating the next intraglacial period.

Re: 1977 Ice Age Scare
What got me was where the Inuit were saying they were getting sea ice where they never did before and the scientists were saying the arctic had been getting progressively colder for the last thirty years, all this in 1977. When you compare that to what we've been told since about the world getting warmer and the ice cap melting it debunks alarmist theory, it proves cyclical climate patterns instead. We may very well be on the brink of another ice age, the point is human activity has absolutely nothing to do with any of it, shouldn't be taxed for it.
