They’re now seeing the impact of their “one-child” policy.
+++++++++
Well I guess they felt the need to stop that growth.
I guess the birth control business is now growing
in some areas.
Andy Grove would be shocked how stupid and political Stanford has become.
About 10 years ago, I heard they are now more left than Berkeley.
No surprise.
So banks will stop giving loans on properties that will be under water soon? Insurance companies will stop issuing insurance for any property that will be affected? Poor Al Gore and Obama!
Michael Crichton warned against the politicization of science about global warming in the afterword of the book, State of Fear.
More B.S. from the corrupt, greedy left.
The basic rule of computer analytics still applies: GIGO, garbage in, garbage out.
Yes, Michael Crichton was a great man. His book State of Fear was a sequel to his speech Environmentalism is a Religion which he gave at San Francisco’s Commonwealth Club in 2003:
“Today, one of the most powerful religions in the Western World is environmentalism. Environmentalism seems to be the religion of choice for urban atheists. Why do I say it’s a religion? Well, just look at the beliefs. If you look carefully, you see that environmentalism is in fact a perfect 21st century remapping of traditional Judeo-Christian beliefs and myths.
There’s an initial Eden, a paradise, a state of grace and unity with nature, there’s a fall from grace into a state of pollution as a result of eating from the tree of knowledge, and as a result of our actions there is a judgment day coming for us all. We are all energy sinners, doomed to die, unless we seek salvation, which is now called sustainability. Sustainability is salvation in the church of the environment. Just as organic food is its communion, that pesticide-free wafer that the right people with the right beliefs, imbibe.
Eden, the fall of man, the loss of grace, the coming doomsday-—these are deeply held mythic structures. They are profoundly conservative beliefs. They may even be hard-wired in the brain, for all I know. I certainly don’t want to talk anybody out of them, as I don’t want to talk anybody out of a belief that Jesus Christ is the son of God who rose from the dead. But the reason I don’t want to talk anybody out of these beliefs is that I know that I can’t talk anybody out of them. These are not facts that can be argued. These are issues of faith.
And so it is, sadly, with environmentalism. Increasingly it seems facts aren’t necessary, because the tenets of environmentalism are all about belief. It’s about whether you are going to be a sinner, or saved. Whether you are going to be one of the people on the side of salvation, or on the side of doom. Whether you are going to be one of us, or one of them.”

Dr Crichton left our world the same day Obama was elected President, and we have missed him ever since then.
He also called the media, “junk”.
I read through the second paragraph and stopped. They mentioned using a “model” to generate the results.
They have been using similar models since 1979 and each has predicted the world would end in 8 years, no 9 years, maybe 5 years or it could be 15 years.
By my math, we only have 12 years of those original 8 years left, so now it is “REALLY” serious!!
Bovine Excrement!!
BULLSHIRT!
The AI model uses garbage in, garbage out.
