EXCERPT:

Now that another Earth Day has come and gone, let's look at some environmentalist predictions that they would prefer we forget.

C.C. Wallen of the World Meteorological Organization said, "The cooling since 1940 has been large enough and consistent enough that it will not soon be reversed."
