Global Cooling is here

If you are an NGO starved of funds, here is a new cause. It is as frightening as global warming, equally wide-ranging in impact and involves esoteric stuff such as glaciation, solar emissions and the like. Global Cooling is here. The earth has reached its maximum possible temperature, it appears. In the next 50 years, global cooling could affect billions. Except for the odd sceptical view from people like Bjorn Lomborg and Michael Crichton, both of whom I have written about before. As we all know, it is more important to guard this world from an unknown, unproven danger that is likely in a 100 years than it is to provide basic healthcare and infrastructure to the starving millions. So, go for it.
