the current "global warming" frenzy appears to be on a much higher level than what we had in 1970ies, but I hope both are equally unjustified.

This is especially cute:

"In the science series Cosmos: A Personal Voyage, physicist Carl Sagan warned of catastrophic cooling through the burning and clear cutting of forests. He postulated that the increased albedo of the earth's surface might lead to a new ice age. He also mentioned that this may be counteracted and overcome by the release of greenhouse gases."

Avert the ice age - buy an SUV!
