 Stewart\n\n In the 1970s the world seemed to be falling apart.  From acid 
 rain to overpopulation, ecological concerns were at the fore.  And it was 
 at this time that climate change first became a hot political issue.  But 
 it wasn’t global warming that frightened scientists, it was the complete 
 opposite — a new ice age.  Iain Stewart traces the history of climate 
 change from its very beginning and examines just how the scientific 
 community managed to get it so very wrong back in the Seventies.  Along the 
 way he uncovers some of the great unsung heroes of climate change science, 
 and introduces us to a secret organization of American government 
 scientists, known as Jason, who wrote the first official report on global 
 warming as far back as 1979.  He shows how — by the late 1980s — global 
 warming had already become a serious political issue.  It looked as if the 
 world was uniting to take action.  But it turned out to be a false dawn.  
 Because in the 1990s global warming would be transformed into one of the 
 biggest scientific controversies of our age.\n\nWheelchair accessible
