Five years ago, almost to the day, Greta Thunberg made an apocalyptic claim about the fate of the world, and now we know whether or not it has come true.
On June 21, 2018, the then-15-year-old Swedish climate activist sent out an alarming tweet that seemed to imply that due to climate change caused by fossil fuels, we only had five years left before the end of the world.
“A top scientist is warning that climate change will wipe out all of humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years,” the tweet read.
Thunberg obviously realized a while back that her prediction would come to nothing and she would be humiliated, as she deleted the tweet in order to save face. But people have the screenshots, and they are not letting her forget it.

Every time I see her, I can’t help but think that she looks like a demented Peanuts character.
....and last seen with Ted Danson who predicted the world would end 15 years ago
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, her mom tried to drink the pregnancy away.
AOC’s predicted day for the end of earth’s habitability for humans is also rapidly approaching. TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK
That’s what I thought!
Mad Lucy? Crazy Sally?
She’s clearly a toon
I’ll play a bit of Devil’s Advocate. You see, Greta could still TECHNICALLY be “correct,” in that she didn’t SAY that the world would end in five years (from the date of her prediction); rather, she said that if we don’t get rid of fossil fuels in five years, then the planet was going to end BECAUSE we didn’t get rid of the evil black goo.
When the planet ACTUALLY ends, though, is anyone’s patootie, but by her reasoning, the world MUST end. Personally, I agree 100% with her on the world ending, just not by SUV usage, but the Sun devouring the Earth after it goes into Red Giant phase in a few billion years.

Exactly. Only by the valiant efforts of politicians purchasing carbon credits has the destruction of the earth been delayed. But, despite their success, victory isn’t assured, so you need to vote YES on the new and improved Carbon and Reduced Particulate (CRAP) tax today!
Of course AOC the bartender is a expert on everything.
Actually you’re not too far from the truth.
She was a creation of her parents and the environmentalist wackos.
Her tantrums were similar to a teenager slamming her bedroom door because she wasn’t allowed to do what her friends were doing.
I’ll give her a little slack but plame her parents for using and allowed to be used as a puppet or, as you say, a peanuts character.
I think she meant all heterosexuals in the U.S., or maybe she meant in the world.. Either way, it didn't pan out.
You are correct. She’s an idiot, but she didn’t say what the headline and commenters say she did.
John’s Book of Revelation gives a much earlier date.
Read it...

In the meantime, AOC has retracted her “world ending in 12 years” claim. Al Gore claimed we had ten years left, back in 2006 and two years ago John Kerry claimed we still have nine years left.
She might want to preach about Nuclear Winter as the end of the world. It’s been trending lately.
