They did, didn't they! Not in the bulk of scientific discussion though, just in media outlets, broadsheets, opinion columns, etc.

It does rather sound like somebody bought into the Koch / Heartland propaganda stream whole heartedly.

Hopefully commenters can bring up "the little ice age" et al. so we can all play denialist talking point bingo.

So the Koch brothers came up with the Milankovitch cycles. Even though it was proposed in 1842 by Joseph Adhémar then in 1860 James Croll added orbital theory in 1911 Milutin Milankovitch came up with the math.

The big event that caused it to come into pop culture in the 70s was a landmark paper by James Hays, John Imbrie and Nicholas Shackleton, published in Science in 1976.

But you think its the Koch brothers. And anyone who actual knows history is playing denialist bingo.

You've won the hacker news Candace Owens conspiracy award for ignoring facts and doubling down on a silly conspiracy theory because it fits some narrative you want to promote today.
