On the heat in the sun's rays, 1856: title page ([by Eunice Foote]) New York times, 27 Apr. 2020: obituary in the "Overlooked" series, page D8 (Eunice Foote; born Eunice Newton July 17, 1819 in Goshen, Conn., died Sept. 30, 1888, aged 69; amateur scientist who discovered greenhouse gases 'would give to our earth a high temperature'; activist for women's rights; made a remarkable discovery about greenhouse gases that could have helped form the foundation of modern climate science, but the scientific paper she published was quickly forgotten; her 1856 paper, "Circumstances affecting the heat of the Sun's rays" was presented at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science not by Foote, but by a male scientist, John Henry; Foote was also a prominent feminist and signer of the women's rights declaration emerging from the 1848 Seneca Falls Convention)
