Mankind will be extinct in 100 years because of climate change, warns expert
Daily Mail ^ | June 19, 2015 | Jonathan O'Callaghan

Humans will be extinct in 100 years due to overcrowding, declining resources and climate change, according to a prominent scientist.

The comments were first made by Australian microbiologist Dr Frank Fenner in 2010, but engineer and science writer David Auerbach has reiterated the doom-laden warning in his latest article.

He criticises the recent G7 summit for failing to deal with the problems facing the survival of humanity, such as global warming and exhausting Earth's resources.

Mr Auerbach goes on to say that experts have predicted that 21st century civilisation faces a similar fate to the inhabitants of Easter Island, who went extinct when they overexploited their natural habitat.

Isn’t this the same group that said NYC would be under water by 2015?

So all we need is just a few more taxes to save mankind, I bet. Brought to you by the same crowd who predicted the North Pole would be gone by now and New York City would be underwater as a result.

Well that should make the ecowackos happy as hell. In fact, maybe they’ll give it a jump start and remove themselves from the equation early. To give the erf a fighting chance of course. I mean if they REALLY cared..... :>}

Efforts to fight climate change will cause mass starvation and a global depression leading to WW III.....might be right about that.

I’ll probably be extinct in 100 years as will most of the people living today.

Since we’ll be extinct then let’s eliminate the IRS and have a flat tax until extinction time.

We could very well become extinct in the next 100 years due ti climate change. Heck, we could become extinct in the next 5 years due to climate change, but not man made climate change... That is just ridiculous.

An asteroid could take us out at any time but we’ll just have to accept that risk...

OK, now I understand: there will be so many of us that there won’t be any of us!

That certainly captures the global warming mindset.

They are speaking about their own mortality....(s)

Isn’t this what the Left wants, the extinction of nasty, unnatural human?
