In 1974, global temperatures were plummeting and snow and ice cover was rapidly increasing.

In the 1990 IPCC Report, a large increase in Arctic sea ice was observed from 1974 to the peak in 1979.

The National Academy of Sciences reported a sharp cooling trend which began about 1940.

By 1961, there was a unanimous consensus of scientists that earth was cooling.

The US and Soviet Union were worried about a new ice age, and scientists wanted to melt the Arctic.

“The United States and the Soviet Union are mounting large?scale investigations to determine why the Arctic climate is becoming more frigid, why parts of the Arctic sea ice have recently become ominously thicker and whether the extent of that ice cover contributes to the onset of ice ages.”

“Other scientists have proposed that, by sprinkling coal dust on the pack, or through other manipulation, it would be possible to melt the ice, open the ocean to navigation and ameliorate the northern climate.”

Scientists blamed every kind of extreme weather on global cooling.

Scientists blamed the Polar Vortex on global cooling, which they now blame on global warming.

And ten years ago during a Texas drought, experts said global warming was going to affect every farmer in the world.  Texas Governor Rick Perry said the drought would end, like they always do:

“if you’re in the farming business, you’re going to have good years, you’re going to have bad years. It’s just our bad year coming. We’ve had some awful good ones, back in — and we’ll be fine. As my dad says, it’ll rain. It always does.”

This made “dozens of credible climate scientists” very upset.

Since then, Texas has had their wettest years on record. The Governor was correct and “dozens of credible climate scientists” were shown to be the incompetent clowns that they are.

Thomas Jefferson was an ardent believer in global warming, until Noah Webster demonstrated that he was confusing UHI effects with climate.

In his 1787 book, Notes on the State of Virginia, Jefferson launched into a discussion of the climate of both his home state and America as a whole. Near the end of a brief chapter addressing wind currents, rain and temperature, he presented a series of tentative conclusions: “A change in our climate…is taking place very sensibly. Both heats and colds are become much more moderate within the memory of the middle-aged. Snows are less frequent and less deep….The elderly inform me the earth used to be covered with snow about three months in every year. The rivers, which then seldom failed to freeze over in the course of the winter, scarcely ever do so now.” Concerned about the destructive effects of this warming trend, Jefferson noted how “an unfortunate fluctuation between heat and cold” in the spring has been “very fatal to fruits.”

Webster concluded by rejecting the crude warming theory of Jefferson and Williams in favor of a more subtle rendering of the data. The conversion of forests to fields, he acknowledged, has led to some microclimatic changes—namely, more windiness and more variation in winter conditions. But while snow doesn’t stay on the ground as long, that doesn’t necessarily mean the country as a whole gets less snowfall each winter: “We have, in the cultivated districts, deep snow today, and none tomorrow; but the same quantity of snow falling in the woods, lies there till spring….This will explain all the appearances of the seasons without resorting to the unphilosophical hypothesis of a general increase in heat.”

Webster’s words essentially ended the controversy. While Jefferson continued to compile and crunch temperature data after his retirement from the presidency, he never again made the case for global warming.

Over the past year, government, the press and social media have stripped Americans of their freedom, money, mobility, livelihood, reliable energy supply, right to choose their leaders in a fair election, due process, free speech and the right to self-defense. And they tell us the real threats are Mr. Potato Head, Dr. Suess and some guy in a buffalo hat.
