| > Can you cite even a few articles or papers from the same era on the topic of global warming Yes, the citations of the article I linked in my edit, the one you requoted, are absolutely full of them. The article also specifically addresses the "cooling consensus" some people perceived from media coverage and compares it to the reality of what was being published and cited at the time academically (note many of the sources you linked are newspaper articles, not journal publications). In particular, refer to the section starting at page number 1329: >Survey of the Peer Reviewed Literature >One way to determine what scientists think is to ask them. This was actually done in 1977 following the severe 1976/77 winter in the eastern United States. “Collectively,” the 24 eminent climatologists responding to the survey “tended
to anticipate a slight global warming rather than a cooling” (National Defense University Research Directorate 1978). However, given that an opinion survey does not capture the full state of the science of the time, we conducted a rigorous literature review of the American Meteorological Society’s electronic archives as well as those of Nature and the scholarly journal archive Journal Storage (JSTOR). >The survey identified only 7 articles indicating
cooling compared to 44 indicating warming. Those
seven cooling articles garnered just 12% of the
citations. On page number 1332, you will find an entire table "Cooling, neutral, and warming papers as defined in the text followed by the number of times they have been cited up through 1983." The book also of course cites lots of research over the decades that built to this consensus, a consensus originating from many reputable sources and scientists individually studying global warming. I'm don't agree with the climate change consensus in a vacuum, but on the basis of the real story of how the consensus was reached from real research that I am trying so hard to point you in the direction of. I'll just refer back to my original remarks that it's pretty much impossible for anyone to discuss these points with you if you won't do the reading. I said above I'm not interested in a personal back and forth about this point. I already gave you what you asked for in this reply in an earlier source, and I'm not going to keep replying any further now. Enjoy the book, but if all you need to be convinced is peer reviewed research into global warming from the 70s-80s it is readily available online. Below are just two examples I pulled from that article and a web search. M. I. Budyko (1977) On present-day climatic changes https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.3402/tellusa.v29i3.11... >Thus, one should recognize the possibility of
rising mean air temperature within the next quarter
of the century. Then the calculations carried out
using different models of climate theory show that
in this case the boundary of polar ice will appreci-
ably recess to the north. The available data show
that this warming, possibly began in late or even
mid-1960s Hansen, J., D. Johnson, A. Lacis, S. Lebedeff, P. Lee, D. Rind, and G. Russell (1981), Climate impact of increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide,
Science, 213, 957-966. https://pubs.giss.nasa.gov/abs/ha04600x.html > It is shown that the anthropogenic carbon dioxide warming should emerge from the noise level of natural climate variability by the end of the century, and there is a high probability of warming in the 1980s. |
