   • 2008 December 9, Jeff Jacoby, “Skepticism on climate change”, in The International Herald Tribune‎^[1], →ISSN:

     Some point out that global temperatures peaked in 1998 and have been falling since then. Indeed, several argue that a period of global cooling is on the way.

   • 2015, Dana Nuccitelli, Climatology Versus Pseudoscience […] , ABC-CLIO, →ISBN, page 20:

     Many climate contrarians have seized upon these studies and magazine articles to argue that since climate scientists supposedly got their global cooling predictions wrong in the 1970s, they could be getting their global warming predictions wrong now.
