   “simple measures like stockpiling food”
   Yeah, because it is very simple to stockpile enough food to feed a whole country for a long period of time.
   Food for how many? How many days supply? Who would decide who gets it?
   Are the stockpiles going to be rotated?
   How much to spend on storage for enough grain to feed hundreds of millions for any significant time period?
   If an ice age comes, I think about 80,000 years worth ought to be enough, for a start.
   Where is all the excess food they supposed it would be a simple matter to stockpile?
   How many did those scientists suppose ought to be allowed to starve in order to “stockpile food”?
   Blithering idiocy.

   It really was quite amazing how quickly the change from runaway disastrous global cooling changed to runaway disastrous global warming.

     In his autobiography, Fred Hoyle describes one of the more dramatic, 180-degree U-turns in consensus science, when the internal composition of the Sun abruptly changed (almost immediately after nations and national academies of sciences were united) from

     _ a.) Mostly iron (Fe) in 1945 to
     _ b.) Mostly hydrogen (H) in 1946, . . .

     without any discussion or debate.

     See pages 153-154 of Fred Hoyle’s autobiography, Home is Where the Wind Blows.

       Fred Hoyle -creator of ‘panspermia’ which there is no evidence for.

       Chaotic systems such as the weather are notoriously hard to predict.If you have ever done any maths of non-linear systems (I have) then you’d know it can change on a dime. So this is quite possible to happen.

   Thanks, Steven, for pulling the curtain on the modern Wizard of Oz using research grants to create the delusion of “97% consensus science.”

   This modern Wizard of Oz came into existence when world leaders – frightened by events hidden from the public during a news blackout in Aug-Sept 1945 and by the last paragraph of Aston’s Nobel Lecture on 12 Dec 1922 [1] – agreed to unite nations (UN) and national academies of sciences (NAS) on 24 Oct 1945 to hide NEUTRON REPULSION [2] the fuel of atomic bombs, nuclear reactors and the fountain of light and heat Copernicus discovered at the center of the solar system in 1543.

   Hopefully the integrity of science can be restored without alienating religious leaders.

   “I get the feeling, and I don’t think that I’m wrong,
   Climate scientists just make it up as they go along.
   Their story keeps on changing, it’s hard to keep pace,
   And we keep on believing, we’re a very strange race.

   First global cooling, of that they were certain,
   Crops wouldn’t grow, it was our final curtain.
   Then global warming, a rising temperature range,
   But that didn’t happen; now it’s climate change.

   There’s a very good chance the Newsweek article was derived from a 1975 Mar 1 article in Science News. It’s only available as a image scan to subscribers, here’s a snippet I made for the WUWT FaceBook group. If this URL doesn’t work, I can type in the text or upload the image to my web site.

   BTW, the quote is from the late Stephen Schneider, then at NCAR.
