Global warming climate: Just a hot air balloon?
1 note: There's more seasons, my good lady!
Forty years ago, two decades of a somewhat cool climate aroused concern among farmers, and then the rest of the world. On December 26 and 27, 1968, in Dallas, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Symposium entitled "The Global Effects of Environmental Pollution" was held. Pollution is a blatant culprit for the misfortunes of the times, on the one hand because nobody likes pollution, and on the other hand because the counter-culture, which takes off in its time, accompanies a feeling of rejection of technical civilization. We are interested in the possible large-scale effects on the atmosphere, whether through the injection of aerosols that would increase albedo, the production of CO2 or other gases that could cause a greenhouse effect, or cause the '' thinning of the ozone layer (a layer of the stratosphere having a concentration of less than ten molecules of O3 for one million molecules of other gases in the air, the thickness of which, reduced to the pressure of soil, varies between 2 and 5 millimeters depending on the latitude, the time of year, and solar activity).
As presented succinctly the famous Newsweek, The Cooling World, published when this concern reached its climax, the scientific consensus was clear: the planet was on the way to a new imminent ice age, and in the coming years, every indication that cause global cooling go global hunger, following violent tornadoes, droughts, floods, prolonged cold periods, delayed monsoons ... and even increases in local temperatures!
At the origin of these apocalyptic predictions: scientists who relied on a statistical treatment of temperature measurements made by a set of terrestrial weather stations distributed in the northern hemisphere. There is no shortage of attempts at "explanations" (more honestly, we should rather speak of attempts to causally link human activity and this temperature curve), we decided on albedo due to pollution particles in the atmosphere , which reflects solar radiation back into space before it has had time to warm the earth.
Lack of luck, from the end of the 1970 years, the summers are not so cold (we remember the heat wave of 1976, among others), and the early 1980, we naturally forget this case cooling. .

Too late !!!
