It wasn't just a Newsweek cover story. There were still major news cycles on the coming ice age in the early 80's.

Bad science reporting is not the same thing as science. Major news cycles were misreporting the actual science. No science was predicting a coming ice age in the 80s.

The ice age hysteria was big in the 70s as well. I don't know what year it started but 70s through 80s climate scientists were saying a global ice age was all but certain, based on sound science and those who disagreed were science haters and all around bad people.

Interesting the guy noting this historical fact above has been flagged and censored and this subthread removed. The truth isn't allowed to be known on HN.

Can you provide some source to this truth you're asserting?
