Not really.
Apparently you were not able to recall a missive, the rallying point of
the enviros, called "The Population Bomb", was quite a best seller in the
60's. Most of us were going to be dead by now. You remember, food

very serious. With a few degrees of cooling , a new ice age might be upon
us, with rapid and drastic effects on the agricultural productivity of
the temperate regions. With a few ..." 2. on Page 60: "... effect was
obviously beyond the worst DOD projections-too much crap injected into
the stratosphere." "I think we've probably started an ice age spiral, but
it won't make much difference to us." ..."
I bet they have a copy at the library. Perhaps you should take a walk
down memory lane and read it.
