- 1ibsq 5y agoMy natural reaction to head lines like this: a lot has been said in the past and by chance a few are right. After reading the article this seems to be more than just a claim but backed with some substance and that's interesting.
- angryfeller 5y agoExcept she just said "An atmosphere of that gas [carbon dioxide] would give our Earth a high temperature" and that is no warning, nor prediction.
- coding123 5y agoProbably because women were not allowed to "warn" or "predict" - not talking about laws, but just the way things were.
