Amazon gives the copyright date as 1980, but doesn't show the cover. I'm fairly sure that it'd be the same book.

The first time global warming hit the popular press was in relation to the planet Venus being so hot. The theory isn't something new from the 1990's. But by prediction I mean predictive value, as in 'if this happens X this other thing will react with Y'.
