First, the believers always warn us we only have 10 years before we pass the "date of no return" for stopping the warming of the climate or else civilization and the planet are doomed to extinction.
Second, they have been warning of this catastrophic calamity every 10 years for at least 6 plus decades now.
Wash, rinse, and recycle the same old bullshit predictions every 10 years like we're stupid or something.
