Hmm …

… AP FACT CHECK: Ted Cruz misstates science of climate change.

THE FACTS: Actually, global warming was more of a concern than cooling back in that time. From 1965 to 1979, 44 peer-reviewed scientific studies found the world was warming, 20 found no trend and only seven found cooling, according to a review of literature published in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society in 2008.
But on January 11, 1970, the Washing to Post reported that "Colder Winters Held Dawn of New Ice Age."
And of course, there was this in 1975: 1975 Newsweek: The Coming Ice Age.
And, in 1972, the National Science Board issued a report saying that "Judging from the record of the past interglacial ages, the present time of high temperatures should be drawing to an end, to be followed by a long period of considerably colder temperatures leading into the next glacial age some 20,000 years from now."
Just saying.
