Back in 1985, Carl Sagan told Congress that continuing to burn fossil fuels will increase global temperature, cause climate change, melt glaciers and ice sheets, and cause sea level rise.

His solution: Fewer government subsidies for fossil fuels and use of renewable energy.

@davidho … and #exxonknew ExxonnMobile knew since 1970
and
the Oil & Gas trade assoc. knew since 1950

there was a newspaper published in 1899 that stated unequivocally that burning coal made CO2 which blanketed the earth and heated it.

The article you were looking for was 1912 (but there was a scientific paper in 1896 which discussed it - AFAIK that was the first). Referenced:

Did a 1912 Newspaper Article Predict Global Warming?

A newspaper clipping from 1912 that anticipates the global warming potential of burning coal is authentic and consistent with the history of climate science.
