“Could”? Yes, and monkeys could come flying from my every bodily orifice. Equal chances, in my actually-had-an-education-in-genuine-science opinion.

Now it’s 2050.

Back in the 1980s it was 2000 :)

When the climate finally does change drastically (not due to man) all of the fanatics will say “WE WERE RIGHT!!” Even if it’s a thousand years from now.

Reminds me of some of my old Italian neighbors and even an aunt or two who would say for years that they were at death’s door and then when they finally died all the other old Italian ladies would say “she was right!”

:)

I will be 110 years old in 2050....chances are slim to none I have to worry about that existential threat.

I'll be 100 that year so I'm right behind you.

Just as good as the predictions from Ehrlich and others in the 70's and 80's.

They were careful to make this one 30 years in the future so they'll be forgotten when it doesn't happen.

Progressivism poses an ‘existential threat’ to humanity by 2050, advocates say

Anyone alive in 30 years that still believes the GlobalClimateWarmingChange hoax deserves the socialist hell they will be living in.

I will be 111 but ‘I ain’t gonna go nowhere’ so I will take notes.

I am ‘afeared’ it is payback time.

I remember back in my USN days we would see or hear of people doing things and say ‘I am going to wait until I am 80 and go ahead and ... or ... and if I don’t like it I haven’t missed anything and if I do, tough.

Of course back in mid 50s/early 60s I thought I would never live to see 30.

I “learned” in the 80’s we would freeze to death by the 90’s. This is truly great news. What shall I do with more time on earth?

But AOC said we had only 12 years. Now we have 31 years left? Look like things are improving!

Right you are Edna, but I’m still waiting to see Ted Danson’s prediction about the oceans made about 30 years ago.....they’re still here. Imagine that....

Comparable warming was an "existential" threat to the Muslim Caliphate in Baghdad in 1258. The Medieval warm period allowed lush grasslands to grow across the current Russian Steppes. This allowed an increase in the Mongol armies, and facilitated the movement of their armies to Baghdad.

In 1258, the Mongol army of about 150,000, with 10,000 Christians and a thousand Chinese Artillery engineers. Conquered and killed most of the population of Baghdad, of about 1,000,000 people. The Caliphate never recovered.

It could not have happened without the Medieval warm period. It never happened again, after the Medieval warm period ended.

2050?

Well, if we can’t prove it or disprove it, we had better play it safe and spend the $100 trillion democrats want in order to heal the planet.

It’s a whole new world out there with Mueller logic taking over.

How ‘bout a word to describe Mueller’s system of logic: Muelogic. Or, Muelstice? Or simply “Mueller’s Law”.

bzzzzzzt- Wrong! We still have at least 1007 more years to go- likely even longer- the world has still got to go through the tribulation, and then through the 1000 year reign of Christ before the world gets destroyed and created again-
