"Shown on American TV and later in US classrooms, The Unchained Goddess explains what weather is, and how weather works. And, really quite presciently, it talks about the risk of man-made climate change … in 1958. One of the narrators declares:
"Even now, man may be unwittingly changing the world’s climate through the waste products of its civilization. Due to our releases in #factories and #automobiles every year of more than six billion tons of #CarbonDioxide, which helps the air absorb heat from the sun, our atmosphere may be getting warmer.
"And is that bad, the question gets asked?:
'Well, it’s been calculated a few degrees rise in the Earth’s temperature would melt the polar ice caps. And if this happens, an inland sea would fill a good portion of the Mississippi valley. Tourists in glass bottom boats would be viewing the drowned towers of Miami through 150 feet of tropical water. For in weather, we’re not only dealing with forces of a far greater variety than even the atomic physicist encounters, but with life itself.'"
