Global Cooling Again

If you follow global warming debates, you’ve heard how environmentalists and their media allies predicted global cooling in the 1970s, only to reverse course in the 1980s.

Well, everything old is new again. Russian scientists are now predicting global cooling, to start about 2055 and last a half century or so.

To be fair, some scientists disagree. These Chinese scientists, for example, say the cooling will start sooner (pdf) — say, about 20 years from now.
