The Real Climate Threat | Power Line

There is a certain irony in the fact that statists are trying to get people riled up about global warming. History’s warm eras–Roman times, the Medieval Warm Period, and the current warm cycle that follows the Little Ice Age–have been good times for humans and for the vast majority of animals. It is cold periods that we should dread, which is why the statists’ first choice, back in the 1970s, was to claim that human civilization is bringing about another Ice Age.

Where I am sitting right now, in suburban Minneapolis, the ice was a half mile thick, if I remember correctly.

An increase of a half a degree in average global temperature? Seriously? Bring it on!
