Here’s a 1969 memo, written in the White House by a top aide to President Nixon. It is now pretty clearly agreed that the C02 content will rise 25% by 2000. This could increase the average temperature near the earth‘ s surface by 7 degrees Fahrenheit. This in turn could raise the level of the sea by 10 feet. Goodbye New York. Goodbye Washington, for that matter. (copy-paste) This is part of a letter from the gov. Archives.✌️
