beskrivelse:

"Coal Consumption Affecting Climate", a science news item published in the Warkworth, New Zealand newspaper the Rodney and Otamatea Times. The same news item appeared in other newspapers around the world in 1912, as general interest notes of this nature were widely copied between papers. The item is distinctive because it is one of the first news items linking fossil fuel consumption to a rise in CO₂ levels and consequent global warming or "greenhouse effect".

Text was earlier published in Popular Mechanics in March 1912 (File:191203 Furnaces of the world - Popular Mechanics - Global warming.jpg)
