Even then they had found the magic Al-Gore-Rhythm to show natural weather patterns are unprecedented. They were able to create an upside down “Hockey Stick” to prove their opinion!
It seems Man just regurgitated it and flipped it over!
I still have the book about this on my shelf. Amazing how much of their data now “proves” AGW …
If it’s slightly warmer than the coldest decade on record, it definitely means that we are DOOMED!!
I normally don’t copy ‘n paste other people’s stuff, but since the following is behind a subscription wall, I take that liberty in this case.

— On Dec. 3, 1972 the head of the Dept. Of Geological Sciences of Brown University even wrote a letter to the President of the United States, warning him of global cooling.
“…a global deterioration of climate, by order of magnitude larger than any hitherto experienced by civilized mankind, is a very real possibility and indeed may be due very soon. The cooling has natural cause and falls within the rank of processes which produced the last ice age. This is a surprising result based largely on recent studies of deep sea sediments.”
— Science 9 May 1975: Vol. 188. no. 4188, pp. 535 – 541
Weather Variability, Climatic Change, and Grain Production Louis M. Thompson
“A cooling trend in the world’s climate would have serious effects in the monsoon belts depending on whether or not the recent changes in snow and ice cover in the polar regions were responsible for the droughts in Africa and the failure of the monsoons over South Asia…….”
and more on That 70′s Global Cooling show:
— Science, “Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide and Aerosols: Effects of Large Increases on Global Climate,” July 9, 1971
[I]t is projected that man’s potential to pollute will increase six to eightfold in the next 50 years. If this increased rate of injection of particulate matter in the atmosphere should raise the present global background opacity by a factor of 4, our calculations suggest a decrease in global temperature by as much as 3.5° K [3.5° C]. Such a large decrease in the average surface temperature of the Earth, sustained over a period of a few years, is believed to be sufficient to trigger an ice age.
— Business Week, “The world’s climate is getting worse” August 2, 1976
Climatologists have advanced a number of theories to explain why the world’s climate is getting worse. The dominant school maintains that the world is becoming cooler, resulting in a loss of arable land at the higher latitudes and major shifts in rainfall patterns. A second school believes the world is warming, with equally serious consequences.
— National Geographic, “What’s Happening to Our Climate?” November 1976
Most scientists agree that today’s ice movement may reflect a worldwide cooling trend, but their explanations vary widely.
— National Science Board, 1972
Judging from the record of the past interglacial ages, the present time of high temperatures should be drawing to an end … leading into the next glacial age….
— Time Magazine, June 24, 1974
“Climatological Cassandras are becoming increasingly apprehensive, for the weather aberrations they are studying may be the harbinger of another ice age.”
— Christian Science Monitor, August 27, 1974
“Warning: Earth’s Climate is Changing Faster than Even Experts Expect”
Reported that “glaciers have begun to advance”; “growing seasons in England and Scandinavia are getting shorter”; and “the North Atlantic is cooling down about as fast as an ocean can cool”.
— Science News, March 1, 1975
“The cooling since 1940 has been large enough and consistent enough that it will not soon be reversed, and we are unlikely to quickly regain the ‘very extraordinary period of warmth’ that preceded it.”
— International Wildlife, July-August, 1975
“But the sense of the discoveries is that there is no reason why the ice age should not start in earnest in our lifetime.”
— New York Times, May 21, 1975
“Scientists Ponder Why World’s Climate is Changing; A Major Cooling Widely Considered to Be Inevitable”
New Fields May Propel Americas to Top of Oil Companies’ Lists
RIO DE JANEIRO — Brazil has begun building its first nuclear submarine to protect its vast, new offshore oil discoveries. Colombia’s oil production is climbing so fast that it is closing in on Algeria’s and could hit Libya’s prewar levels in a few years. ExxonMobil is striking new deals in Argentina, which recently heralded its biggest oil discovery since the 1980s.
Up and down the Americas, it is a similar story: a Chinese-built rig is preparing to drill in Cuban waters; a Canadian official has suggested that unemployed Americans could move north to help fill tens of thousands of new jobs in Canada’s expanding oil sands; and one of the hemisphere’s hottest new oil pursuits is actually in the United States, at a shale formation in North Dakota’s prairie that is producing 400,000 barrels of oil a day and is part of a broader shift that could ease American dependence on Middle Eastern oil

Global cooling, global warming, it didn’t matter to some people. Alarmism that brought in the cash and gave them job security and recognition is what they were concerned with.
“Climate Change Science and Policy”
“Authors: Stephen H. Schneider, Armin Rosencranz, Michael D. Mastrandrea and Kristin Kuntz-Duriseti”
“In his prologue, John P. Holdren writes that the widely-used term “global warming” is a misnomer. He suggests that a more accurate label would be “global climatic disruption.” This volume, he states, will equip readers with all they need to know to rebut the misrepresentations being propagated by “climate-change skeptics.” No one, he writes, will be a skeptic after reading this book.”
They have mixed up their bins, the loony bin is being recycled.
