   Future generations will wonder in bemused amazement that the early   
   twenty-first century’s developed world went into hysterical panic over a   
   globally average temperature increase of a few tenths of a degree, and,   
   on the basis of gross exaggerations of highly uncertain computer   
   projections combined into implausible chains of inference, proceeded to   
   contemplate a rollback of the industrial age.
