The information I had on the 1980 heat wave was on the local radio station. It was only a degree or two from this one. That is very little difference. Global Warming runs in cycles. Man undoubtedly has some effect. The debate is in how much. It only makes sense to curtail air pollution to the extent that is economically feasible. In the 60's you could routinely smell the Pulp Mill at Lewiston Moscow. That has been cleaned up a lot. Do what is feasible with out putting us back in the Stone Age. Also take a reasonable approach, Critique the doom sayers, with the The Sky is Falling" scenario. Work on the problem is a calm reasonable manner. Science in general have lots of view points. The teutonic Plate theory was originally ridiculed as was the the effect of glaciers on land formation. There has been lots of conflicting reports on Vitamins and Herbs. The research by Wakefield on the effect of vaccinations on Autism was bogus and caused considerable harm. There is a problem but!
work on
it with a health skepticism on individual report. Every thing in science needs to be verified by multiple reports from independent sources.
