The earth has actually been cooling for about a decade. We are probably heading into a decade or more of colder temps. The climate change hoax is an industry that rival the magnitude of the oil industry.
The myth that the Earth is currently cooling down—sometimes bolstered by the misconception that scientists warned of an impending ice age in the 1970s—is directly contradicted by overwhelming evidence. In reality, the planet is experiencing rapid, unprecedented global warming due to human activities. [

The Myth of a Cooling Planet
The claim that the Earth is cooling is usually rooted in a misunderstanding of past climate records or the conflation of short-term weather fluctuations with long-term planetary trends. [

- The 1970s Consensus Myth: A pervasive myth suggests that climate scientists in the 1970s believed an ice age was imminent. While a few isolated media reports and a small number of scientific papers speculated about cooling—primarily due to temporary increases in sulfur-based aerosols reflecting sunlight—the vast majority of peer-reviewed literature in that era was already warning about global warming.
- The "Cooling Cycle" Misconception: According to natural astronomical cycles (Milankovitch cycles), the Earth should currently be in the initial stages of a long-term, gradual cooling trend leading toward an ice age. However, this natural cycle has been completely overridden by greenhouse gas emissions, which are driving global temperatures upward at an unprecedented speed.
- Weather vs. Climate: Localized cold spells or short-term multi-year drops in surface temperatures do not mean the planet is cooling. Global temperatures are highly variable and subject to "noisy" interactions between the atmosphere and oceans, but the definitive long-term trajectory is one of warming. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
The Scientific Reality
Rigorous, decades-long studies by organizations like
NASA Science show that the average global surface temperature has risen significantly over the last century. This warming is primarily driven by the exponential increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels.
By the 1970s, scientists were becoming increasingly aware that estimates of global temperatures showed cooling since 1945, as well as the possibility of large scale warming due to emissions of greenhouse gases. In the scientific papers which considered climate trends of the 21st century, fewer than 10% were inclined towards future cooling, while most papers predicted future warming.
[2] The general public had little awareness of carbon dioxide's effects on climate, but
Science News in May 1959 forecast a 25% increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide in the 150 years from 1850 to 2000, with a consequent warming trend.
[3] The actual increase in this period was 29%.
