>what are you on about with the world freezing. That's new to me.

Well, because this was a thing in the 70's, so before you were born. I remember the headlines in pop-sci magazines were screaming about "the coming ice age" and artists depictions of glaciers in New York, Chicago, etc.

It doesn't invalidate the current climate science, but plenty of people remember that old sensationalism.
