A couple of scientists looked at a couple of data points, kept in
mind
the orbital forcing issues and essentially said "it might be worth
looking into the possibility that we are entering a new ice age ..."

In 1970, the possibility of an ice age was simply a working by a
copuple of scientists that was given wide media circulation but for
which the
evidence was still inconclusive. No corroroborating evidence was ever
found. Moreover, the handful who thought the hypothesis worth
exploring did not assert that the causes of cooling were
anthropogenic
and so far as they did imply that some policies should be followed,
they were adaptive rather than prophylactic in character.

They were proposing *more research*. Not only was the proposal
reasonable, but had it been followed, we might have got a head start
on taking the issue of climate seriously.

And just for the record, in the 1970s, of the papers published on the
matter the overwhelming majority predicted global warming over a new
ice age.

Of course, the GPC [global polluters cartel] spruikers have blown a
proposal for research by a handful of scientists into a world wide
scientific consensus. They simply have no regard for honesty.
