Extra Board. Here is a newspaper clipping entitled "Coal Consumption Affecting Climate." It was published originally in the 14 August 1912 issue of "The Rodnen & Otamatea Times" out of Warkworth, North Island, New Zealand. Partial Quotes: "The furnaces of the world are now burning about 2,000,000,000 tons of coal a year.... The effect may be considerable in a few years." How about in just one century? Don't say we didn't know in time and so couldn't do anything about climate change! |
