The main prediction is for a tipping point in 2000 where actions could reverse or halt the warming trend. The other predictions are for what catastrophes they expect would happen by the year 2100 if the trends persist. It's very poor or biased reporting. A lot of the political threads trolling for views use the slanted news linked from the 'conservative' or 'liberal' sites. The irony of the forecast is why the urgency for action 30 years later if the tipping point has already been reached.
"None of these tipping points are considered very likely to occur in the short run; but the consequences of any of them are so severe, and the fact that we cannot retreat from them once they've been set in motion so problematic, that we must keep them in mind when evaluating the overall risks associated with climate change."
Democrats version of the apocalypse? Liberalism has become a religion, after all.
True and anyone to question the religion with valid questions or scientific explanations that doesn't fit in the religion's belief system commit Heresy and will be attacked.
I remember all of the outlandish predictions my professors made in the late 70's and early 80's and at least we can say they vastly overestimated the effects of climate change and I can predict that they still are vastly overstating the future effects as well. I still encourage people to conserve and try to use alternative energies when they can, in case they're partially correct.
Good news! the world will not end by fire scientists now predict, instead it will end in ice as the universe expands and stars eventually die out the universe will be black and cold. Only have billions of years left.
Of course actually long before then our sun will become a red giant so ugh actually yeah the world will die by fire and global warming.
If only taxes and Democrats could save us from that.
The news is filled with changes in weather setting records. Record fires, flooding, tornadoes...
