Environmentalists in the media often seem to want to move the goalposts on their climate Armageddon predictions. USA Today ran a story headlined “Unsuitable for 'human life to flourish': Up to 3B will live in extreme heat by 2070, study warns” May 4, 2020. USA Today stated that “By 2070, up to 3 billion people are likely to live in climate conditions 'deemed unsuitable for human life to flourish.’” Citing a new study, USA today warned that “[w]ithout climate mitigation or migration, by 2070 a substantial part of humanity will be exposed to average annual temperatures warmer than nearly anywhere today.” Interesting, given that USA Today national correspondent Elizabeth Weise published a conflicting story in December 2019 headlined, “10 years to save planet Earth: Here are 6 imaginative climate change solutions.”

5 years ago. We’re done.

I’m pretty sure the world ended 4 years ago (AlGore 2006).
Our existence since then has been purely anecdotal.

>>“By 2070, up to 3 billion people are likely to live in climate conditions ‘deemed unsuitable for human life to flourish.’”

Carpetbaggers already tell me that about the humidity in my town.

Cold Kills.

Warm is good.

Humanity thrives in warmer temperatures, we are a tropical species.

With quint-zillions of "asian murder hornets" invading the US out west, we probably have only a week or so left to live. The only thing to reasonably do in the meantime is PARTY!!!

Maybe if we herd all the liberals and the media into California, it'll tip over like Guam. 😆

Is that the next ten or fifty? Because As I recall fifty years ago we were told that the population of the world would freeze in a coming ice age and we would all starve, remember the fantasy novel 'The Population Bomb'?

Shyster science and media stirring up fear for sales have been pushing disasters of cooling, warming, rising seas and drought for decades with global warming caused by the green house effect since the 1800's.

Let's go with 10, so I can take out a 30-year mortgage and not have to pay for the whole thing.

World is doomed in every day for some people it’s called life and nobody gets out alive.
