I was born in 74. So much has changed since every family watched Walter Cronkite for their news.

The evidence about global cooling was just as staggering in the 1970s as the global warming evidence is today. I question the veracity of everyone’s claims.

@roa3432 2 жыл бұрын

That's what climate change means. In some areas it will be colder than usually and in other areas it will be warmer than usual. The climate has been thrown off balance which cause issues global.

@markus8994 Жыл бұрын

No it wasn’t. There wasn’t a single scientific journal published that claimed global cooling was actually realx

60s, we only have 10 years of oil. 70s, we only had 10 years to next ice age. 80s, we had 10 years to stop acid rain. 90s, we had 10 years to fix the ozone layer. 2000, we had 10 years to stop ice caps from melting, 2010, we had 10 years before the coasts were flooded. 2020, we have 10 years to get to net zero CO2. Are we seeing a pattern here? 🤔

The ozone layer one was 100% legit. And the world came together and fixed the problem. Acid rain was also true, but was over blown by radicals so people think that one was a lie. Acid rain still happens in Chinese industrial areas.

Ahaha aha that’s because Massachusetts state troopers have what I like to call. A zero tolerance policy! You generally don’t see people mouthing off to a trooper. A Massachusetts state trooper will whip your ass with quickness. But in my personal experience. If you treat the trooper with respect and act civilized. The trooper will most always treat you the same. It’s simple really!

How sad, commenters aren't aware this day drastically improved the quality of air and water in our nation, we enjoy the fruits of one of the most beautiful environmentally protected areas on earth. The Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act, and other legislation (yes, the EPA) turned things around in a significant way. Don't politicize this
