In 1989, the Associated Press relayed a warning from a U.N. official:
"A senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000."
In 1967, a best-selling book came out called “Famine 1975! America’s Decision: Who Will Survive?”
It predicted mass starvation around the developing world due to increasing population. “Today’s crisis can move in only one direction – toward catastrophe,” it warned.
Global cooling was once a worry to many, such as University of California at Davis professor Kenneth Watt, who warned that present trends would make the world “eleven degrees colder in the year 2000 ... about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”
British science writer Nigel Calder was just as worried. "The threat of a new ice age must now stand alongside nuclear war as a likely source of wholesale death and misery for mankind,” Calder warned in International Wildlife magazine in 1975.
In 2006, while promoting his movie “An Inconvenient Truth”, Al Gore said that humanity had only 10 years left before the world would reach a point of no return.
Gore’s movie also featured animations of water inundating Manhattan and Florida.
In 1982, U.N. official Mostafa Tolba, executive director of the UN Environment Program, warned:
“By the turn of the century, an environmental catastrophe will witness devastation as complete, as irreversible, as any nuclear holocaust.”
In 1970, Sen. Gaylord Nelson, D-Wisc., – often considered the “father of Earth Day” – cited the secretary of the Smithsonian, who “believes that in 25 years, somewhere between 75 and 80 percent of all the species of living animals will be extinct.”

Yup—leftists know exactly what to do when they get caught lying.
Double down!
And the hypocrite left always points out Christian teachers who miss prophetic doomsdays.
50 Years of Failed Doomsday, Eco-pocalyptic Predictions; the So-called ‘experts’ Are 0-50
By Mark J. Perry September 23, 2019
Like a stopped clock. Sooner or later they’ll be right.
There is a spacecraft trailing Comet Hale–Bopp that will take us away from the certain doom that awaits us. Really, it’s true. Marshall Applewhite said so.
They do this in order to draw the attention of the sheep away from the obvious failures and self-dealing of the ruling class.
I have friends who are into You Tube “prophets” who are saying that September 24, 2022 will have power outages, earthquakes, floods, wars, and all sorts of things.

On September 24, 2022 I plan on putting up a bunch of apple pies in the deep freeze for the winter.
I am more inclined to believe Chicken Little than any of these idiots.
Its called earning a pay check via scam same as TG Evangelists, politicians, and doomsday Proselytizers
And Aunt Cleo mon.
Actually there are no Christian prophetic doomsdays. Jesus himself of the day and the hour no one will know. Any attempt to specify a doomsday date is not Christian.
I know. I'm just pointing out that the enviro-whacko left has no room to talk.
We are all going to die !! ! Eventually.
Here's another:
Yep
Ha! Excellent!!
