    Those of use who are 50ish probably remember being told in grade school that a new ice age was coming.

    What's funny is when Mt Pinatubo belched in the Philippines in the 90's it spewed more "greenhouse gases" than man has produced since the onset of the Industrial Revolution.

    Look at those old lesson plans that told us of an upcoming ice age and scientists looked at the temp swing cycles that are natural. These temp swing cycles always had a period where the temperature world wide would rise, then plunge into an ice age. Maybe that warming period has come and gone and we are actually going into an ice age now?
    People in the mid-west and east would agree after the winter they just experienced.

    When were told about the upcoming ice age, there was no mention of human involvement, it was a natural occurrence.


    Anybody remember the CFC bans to prevent the hole in the ozone layer? The whole push for CFC bans were put forward by manufacturing, so they could produce more expensive product. Then they proved that the ozone whole was naturally occurring and has always been there too!

    What about the push to remove R12 as a refrigerant in automobile AC units? Again a push by DuPont (manufacturer) to produce a more expensive product. (R134a)
    This needed to happen to help the environment.... LOL

    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    That wasn't funny, it was profitable for some of us: it made for fantastic sunsets around the globe for several years!
