Unstoppable global warming : every 1,500 years

Singer, S. Fred, Singer, Siegfried Fred. 1924 - (Author).

Summary: The authors have put together an impressive collection of "reasons to believe that global warming may not be as bad as some people are telling us" - in other words, that natural variations, rather than human-emitted greenhouse gases, have tended to control the climate. Their exhaustive list of scientific references, mostly from referred journals, only underscores their statements.
