This article is disingenuous. 60 years ago, scientists were predicting global cooling, not global warming. Not to cover all avenues, its been changed to just "climate change."

That’s actually a myth. Global cooling was a small minority of published papers in climatology at the time. They were many more papers discussing warming.
