41 predicted eco-catastrophes that never happened

Climate ‘Experts’ Are 0-41 with Their Doomsday Predictions

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2...y-predictions/

JOHN NOLTE20 Sep 2019

For more than 50 years Climate Alarmists in the scientific community and environmental movement have not gotten even one prediction correct, but they do have a perfect record of getting 41 predictions wrong.

In other words, on at least 41 occasions, these so-called experts have predicted some terrible environmental catastrophe was imminent … and it never happened.

And not once — not even once! — have these alarmists had one of their predictions come true.

Think about that… the so-called experts are 0-41 with their predictions, but those of us who are skeptical of “expert” prediction number 42, the one that says that if we don’t immediately convert to socialism and allow Alexandria Ocasio-Crazy to control and organize our lives, the planet will become uninhabitable.

Why would any sane person listen to someone with a 0-41 record?

Why would we completely restructure our economy and sacrifice our personal freedom for “experts” who are 0-41, who have never once gotten it right?

If you had an investment counselor who steered you wrong 41times, would you hang in there for number 42?

Of course not. You’d fire him after failed prediction two or three.

And if that’s not crazy enough, the latest ploy is to trot out a 16-year-old girt to spread prediction number 42, because it is so much more credible that way.

Sometimes you just have to sit back and laugh.

Anyway, I want you to have the data, so go ahead and print this out in advance of Thanksgiving dinner with your obnoxious Millennial nephew.

Sorry, Experts… Sorry, Scientific Consensus… Only a fool comes running for the 42nd cry of wolf.

Don’t litter, be kind to animals, recycling’s for suckers (it’s all going to end up in the ground eventually), so stop feeling guilty… Go out there and embrace all the bounty that comes with being a 21st century American — you know, like Obama, who says he believes in Global Warming with his mouth but proves he doesn’t with the $15 million he just spent on oceanfront that we’re told is doomed to flooding.

[Anti Globalist]

Liberals just keep changing the timeline for when the world is supposed to end due to climate change. You'd think by now most people would be able to see through this stuff.

[Danke]

It is good thing they brought awareness of all those dangers and our government was able to prevent them.

I think the world is more apt to end by nuclear war or perhaps a massive meteorite.

Maybe they should be concentrating on those instead.

Energy is central to our way of life, I wouldn't ever put off a subject like the energy problems.

Irreversible expansion of Pot Holes across America are uniting into one giant pothole that will
create its own black hole to China, there we will have our organs harvested and sold to

Here's the first 27.

Which ones in particular?

On one hand, yeah, you can't really say that the 2070 ice age is definitely not coming...

...On the other hand, if the Harold Campings of the world only get three or four tries before they get mercilessly lampooned, I think a paltry five wrong predictions for the Church of Scientism is enough to give them the same treatment, and we were past that many four decades ago.

@TheTexan

+rep This is why I'm not worried about climate change, our government is on top of it

If it ever gets out of hand, the US can just bomb every country that doesn't go solar

Well then, that settles it. You sure changed my mind.
