50 Year Anniversary of British Heat Wave.

[odanny]

How apropos, considering the weather in Europe today. This unusual heatwave was a precursor of what was to come.

A period of unusually hot summer weather occurred in the British Isles during the summer of 1976. At the same time, there was a severe drought on the islands of Great Britain and Ireland.

It was one of the driest, sunniest and warmest summers (June/July/August) in the 20th century, although the summer of 1995 is now regarded as the driest. Only a few places registered more than half their average summer rainfall. In the Central England temperature record, it was the warmest summer in the series only equalled by 2025.

It was the warmest summer in the Aberdeen area since at least 1864, and the driest summer since 1868 in Glasgow.

Around 1976 the Climate Change idiots were warning us about falling into another Ice Age if we didn't stop wrecking the environment. When the weather kept warming they were proven to be idiots so they laid low for a decade and then reemerged with the Global Warming BS. Now all their doomsday predictions are proving to be false and they will lie low for another decade and then reemerge with a new scheme. Probably something like the weather is too normal and we should be naturally having more extreme weather.

That's a lie.

Do you think all newspapers have been wrong since one of them printed a headline "Dewey Defeats Truman"?

What one magazine decides to print being the basis of your argument shows you really should not comment, lest you sound foolish.

Too late for you, though.

Global Warming as per CO2 levels and a man made immediate apocalypse may be nonsense , but Global Warming is right for other reasons .

See Weakening Electro Magnetic shield
See fast moving Magnetic Poles shift .
These events occur periodically and we are on the cusp of the Disaster Cycle near extinction event .

If you want to feel happy by pretending that this is all Conspiracy , you are in for the shock of your lives .
Non preppers will fry to death . Radiation plus general heat .

So DYOR if you can keep awake .

Its probably Russian war factories. German war industry during WWII, which was only outmatched in terms of GDP by the 2000´s, did also have a massive impact on the climate, also increased the number of cyclones in the country massively during that period.

Another ignorant ass that simply is repeating a lie. Most of the articles in peer reviewed journals of that time stated that the world would warm because of the GHG's that we were putting into the air.

What were climate scientists predicting in the 1970s?

<p>1970s ice age predictions were predominantly media based. The majority of peer reviewed research at the time predicted warming due to increasing CO2.</p>

What's foolish is people keep listening to these climate alarmists. Global Cooling was their big argument from the 60's until the late 70's. Meanwhile real climate scientists have been studying the world's climate going back hundreds of millions of years and note that many times in earth's history the climate has been significantly hotter with CO2 levels off the charts. Then there are the times the earth underwent what they call Snowball Earth and completely froze over. Earth's climate has always had its extremes and will continue to do so. Yet here we are today with these climate alarmists still making doomsday predictions. There are two groups or people who should be ignored, climate alarmists and forum trolls like yourself.

Not true. You use a TIME magazine cover as the basis for your argument. That was never widely believed by any group of climate scientists. Like all propagandists you pluck an extreme outlier as the basis of your absurd argument. In fact, elevating the outlier has always been the basis of climate deniers, the foolish, and the uneducated.

Educated people know better, and that exludes you.

I have been posting the facts about that claim since 2008. And the same people just keep repeating the same claim. By this time, one can only assume they enjoy telling lies like their malodorous mango.

You are talking about climate SCIENTISTS, and they were divided on the issue. The fact that there were many climate scientists who sided with global cooling drove the global cooling narrative among the media and the alarmists. I am specifically talking about the climate ALARMISTS who misconstrue what real climate scientists say in order to construct a false narrative that usually has financial interests behind it. Which brings up another point, and that is all the modern climate scientists who didn't support the global warming narrative were almost all chastised, ostracized and eventually fired, because of the fact that there was so much financial interest involved. Just because a person is a scientist does not make them trustworthy, and all scientists are always chasing money for research and can easily be corrupted.

This remains the driving force behind the anti-science argument. You take something you know nothing about (science) and turn it into something you think you know something about (economics) in order to explain why climate scientists are almost universally in agreement about, all the while excluding the absurdity of your conspiracy theory, that scientists around the world are all part of this campaign to generate revenue.

All of their careful analysis and measurements, largely in alignment, are somehow in agreement solely for financial gain.

As ridiculous as that is, millions like you believe it in this country.

Always remember, your eyes are lying.

Those same people likely work for the energy industry, they have taken their scientific knowledge and used it to create doubt and confusion amongst people for their own, and their employer's, financial gain. The irony of your argument is lost on you.

They indeed have earned any derision and scorn that comes their way.

The general population does not dive into academic research to generate their opinions, they turn on the television. Just like you do. Now if the television was telling them about global cooling in the 60's and 70's, that's not my fault nor anybody else's. The media generated the climate alarmists decrying global cooling, who were later proven to be very wrong. Then they morphed into climate alarmists decrying global warming because of fossil fuel use. They too are being proven wrong today. Even Greta Thunberg has abandoned the issue and is now begging to get petroleum to Cuba. As for you consensus fallacy, just because 100 people believe the same thing does not make them right about something that is in fact wrong. History is replete with sheep being led to a slaughter because of the consensus fallacy. My experience is the sheep are often wrong and following the herd is a massive mistake.

Changes that happened over a thousand years are now happening in 50 years or so. Foolish people are those who can`t understand this.

I don't even know where to begin. I am not about to try and convince you of anything, feel free to believe all that.

I will. I tend to believe my eyes instead of listening to what anonymous people say on the Internet, and what the MSM is feeding us today. Doing that is foolish.

They`ve always lived in the fear that someone will ask them to sacrifice and/or change their lifestyles. I`m old enough to remember how grownups cried like babies when they couldn`t buy a car that gets 12 miles to a gallon anymore.
Oh, the humanity!

I'll tell you what, the WEF billionaires are behind this climate change BS. When they give up their private jets, multiple mansions and mega yachts and live within the same ecological footprint as the rest of us, I will too. You have to admit is is suspicious that these billionaires arrive in their private jets at Davos every year to lecture us on how we have to adopt austerity.

Here`s another idea. Read books.

I understand your point, but how much of our greenhouse gases are coming from private jets and mega yachts and how much is coming from our gas guzzling pickup trucks that don`t carry anything but air? I own a small pickup because not having natural gas available, I get most of my heat from wood which isn`t exactly environmentally healthy either. How often do we see oversized pickup trucks actually carrying anything? A lot of guys drive them for their own manhood. My truck is 4 years old and it just turned 12,000 miles.
