scientific input. By every measure the conference represented a signal victory for the foes of scientific progress, knowledge, and economic development. The truth is that this UN grab for global dictatorship is based upon a myth. In 100 years of measuring the net change in temperature over the earth no more than one half of one degree Centigrade has been recorded. Added to the proof of those measurements is the data from Tiros II, a temperature-measuring satellite that has orbited the earth since 1978. This data shows no significant temperature trend, either up or down. Outside of instrument-measured variations, records go back as far as 1,700 years to show that climate varies naturally outside of any man made cause. For those who desire more information about this and many other vital environmental issues, we recommend Dixy Lee Ray's book Environmental Overkill: Whatever Happened To Common Sense? published by Regnery Gateway, Washington, D. C. Another example of a theory based upon propaganda and half-truths is ozone depletion. Based upon this theory, laws have already been passed by the U. S. Congress that will, by 1995, ban the manufacture of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). This action came about as a result of another UN treaty referred to as the "Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer." Under the provisions of this treaty, Americans can be fined $25,000 per day and imprisoned for five years. 160 The Secret Side of History
