If alarmist apologists don’t really start to wonder about headlines like that (given all the others they’ve been inundated with), then they rightly deserve the very low IQ they have.
One would hope that at least *some* of them would say: “Aw, come on!”.
Experts are finally learning to push their predictions out past their retirement age.
From my file of factoids, quotes and smart remarks:
The most important lesson in Climate Science: Never make an
unfounded assertion on a timeline that expires before you do.

Pisa Times 1594 Arch global science denier recants~ Galileo admits he was wrong, the 99.999% consensus of scientists are proved correct, the sun revolves around the earth.
The rent-seeking, peer review, consensus crowd are not the brightest bulbs in the drawer. But, they sure do know how to stay in line and suckle at Big Brother’s teat.
Yet another shocking and disturbing new study. If they keep it up The People will become inured to shock so they should throw in a hopeful and optimistic study from time to time to be “fair and balanced”. But this should disabuse anyone of the notion that Faux News is one of the good guys. They are at best limited hang-out/now-it-can-be-told “news” embedded in a matrix of “scary science” nonsense like this. In all of the MSM, including the internet, one needs an electron microscope to detect particles of truth
Tony- has anyone updated the Navy graph to show the distance between the
green trend line and measured data since 2004?
The Arctic will be ice free by 2060. Tell me I am wrong. Prove it.
Very similar to the alarmist reports in Australia about the coming demise of the Great Barrier Reef. The coming death of the GBR has been reported since 1971.
Various (exaggerated) reports of coral bleaching/damage leading to “definite” ends of the GBR, along with pleas for more money for “research” on the supposed cause. Hundreds of millions of dollars has been spent with nothing to show for it** except that the GBR is still alive.
**There is a nasty case going on where a Professor queried the quality and accuracy of the research (that was before one of the researchers was found to have faked the results in at least one paper) and was sacked. He took James Cook University to Court and the judge dismissed all 17 of the Univerity’s articles of defence and awarded damages against them. The response of the University was to spend lots of taxpayers money on an appeal.
