As I remember,(that was my sophmore high school year) when Earth Day first started we were anticipating global cooling.

Winters sure have changed since then. They are no where as long or as cold as I remember them to be.

Most, if not all, of the winter time fishing fests in the lower two thirds of the state of Minneosta have been cancelled permanently or have become hit or miss because of the very very regular and reliable icing over not happening (iceover happens, usually, but the ice is too thin).

I can’t read the U.S. Meteorological Society article referenced in that link – I don’t have a subscription. It covers through 2010; satellite imagery from this winter showed only 5% of the Great Lakes surface was ice covered. The long-term average is about 40%.

That is a common mistake made by people who don’t know much about climate, climate change, or global warming. The global warming trend is not something that started the day after YOU first heard of it. It is something that started in the middle of the 19th century, with accelerations subsequent to that.

The Industrial Revolution, which started in the late 18th century in England and really took off in the mid 19th century in many other places including the US was fueled by the burning of enormous amounts of coal.

Your denialism is stupid and annoying. Take it somewhere else, please.
