Notice its always about 10 years to doomsday and it keeps getting pushed out. Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth came out in 2006 and said we had 10 years until doomsday and now we have AOC saying the same thing in 2020. How many times can these climate "experts" get things wrong before people start to question them?

They will be able to get it wrong as many times as they want, as long as the tv, politicians and celebrities keep telling everyone the world is going to end in 10 yrs. That is the sad reality, some people will believe anything they are told whether it makes sense or not. When you add all the evidence it’s clear the ones pushing climate change don’t believe it themselves.

Every year more kids come out of the school system brainwashed by it. They win the long game for a reason.

“Climate change is the biggest threat in the world! Now let’s all get in our private jets and fly across the world from our mega mansions to meet with other “elites” so we can hob nob and circle jerk about how important we are, and how the unimportant rubes need to make sacrifices!”

Lakefront property will be underwater in 10 yrs, but we don’t care and will still buy/finance them because banks love losing money apparently. We won’t go to war with China/India to stop their pollution which is absolutely required if you actually believe man made climate change is a catastrophe that is going to be irreversible in 10’yrs. The list goes on where their words do not line up with their actions.

Seriously! They put up all kinds of environmental protections here and all it does is move manufacturing to China, which pollutes like crazy. Then you say “let’s put tariffs on China and bring jobs back here” and they lose their fucking minds! They suddenly become far right and complain that prices of goods may be affected. I’m not opposed to living greener, but I’m sure as hell not going to listen to them on the issue.

People underestimate how well the Earth’s biosphere can adapt to changing conditions. It has existed for a long time, and has adjusted through some seriously adverse events, things way worse than whatever amount of global warming man has caused.

Yeah, it's damn near Waterworld out there right now.

I'm posting this from one of the last, remaining pieces of high ground in all of North America.

It's because most of the world is young. About 30% of the planet is under the age of 18. That means the same grab bag of tricks can be used over and over for each generation of gullible fools.

this!, global warming armageddon has perpetually been 10 years out for decades. Its close enough time to make people panic but long enough out that by that time comes around most programmed bots will forget that the world was supposed to have ended. In 2005 they were saying that manhattan was supposed to be underwater in 2015.
