Visiting the Way Back Machine, I had to take a half-semester course in college called World Energy Resources. It was mandated by New York State for all SUNY/CUNY colleges. Professor Doom was adamant that we would be bone-dry out of oil by 1990, and as we were entering a new 'climate ice age' we would all starve/freeze to death. Kind of made my C in Language class seem comparatively irrelevant.



Yup, I heard all that doom and gloom in the 80s as a kid.

I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!
