   Scare stories was the story from Day 1:

   “[T]o capture the public’s imagination … we have to offer up some scary scenarios, make simplified dramatic statements and little mention of any doubts one might have…. Each of us has to decide the right balance between being effective, and being honest.” — STEPHEN SCHNEIDER (1989), contributor to all four IPCC reports. [88]
