Summary
Not content with forecasting a second Great Depression, the AP has reported on the certain apocalypse of global warming. Americans in the Great Depression of the 1930s endured widespread poverty and massive unemployment. Yet, at least they were safe from global warming. They had to be. Every major contributor of man-made greenhouse gasses (GHGs) was a nonstarter: (1) Family car ownership (singular) was a luxury, not a necessity; (2) Commercial air travel was non-existent; (3) U.S. industrial production was half what it had been a decade before; and (4) China and India were, comparatively, pre-industrial.
Yet, 1934 was the warmest year in the U.S. in half a century. Today, 1934 is still the warmest year on record. Surely an aberration. Well, no. U.S. temperature data (importantly, not pronouncements) from NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) headed by James Hansen, an early advocate of GHG doctrine, show that 2000, 2002, 2003 and 2004 were colder than 1900. Of the 10 warmest years on record, half occurred before 1940.See the full content of this document
