OMG! OMG! Whatever shall we do? Oh, haven't we already been through the "Only Ten Years To Turn This Around" scenario already? As we all know it's really "What are you gonna do to save our grant money". If and when ole mother erf(if that's what you like) decides that she's had enough with humans and some sort of plague eradicates us, she'll just keep on circlin' the sun. Maybe a little worse for the wear but probably not.

Climate Scientists Spread Panic: ‘Ten Years’ to Save the Earth

Haven't they been saying this for what, the last 25 years or so?

They told us the tipping point was a few years ago. I suspect it will always be 10 years in the future until they get their way.

Hmmmmm ..???? Didn’t they tell us this same story when Gore was running for President.

Hmmmmm ..???? Seems to me we would have been destroyed by now.

OR ..???? “climate change” IS A HOAX. A SINISTER SCAM TO STEAL OUR MONEY AND CONTROL EVERYTHING WE DO.

DON’T BE IGNORANT AND FALL FOR THIS GARBAGE.

Al Gore also said we only have ten years left... in 2006.

Anyone remember Al Gore’s 2006 “10 year tipping point?” 2016 came and went and here we are, hurricane seasons have been less violent in that time and the sea level hasn’t measurable risen.

Polar bears still abound in great numbers and the arctic ice layer has thickened.

Some inconvenient truths.

I’m sure sending 500B to the UN will fix it.

Nuke China and India, and every Islamic country back to the stone ages, that should accomplish that goal. About as valid a response as the dire warning is so likely to occur. Those Islamic countries are already in the stone ages so likely won’t miss the petro-fuel machines anyway, should any of them survive.

If we are serious about decarbonizing the economy, we could get serious about going nuclear. But the environmentalists regard the Yucca Mountain repository as a greater threat.

Back in 1989, Ted Danson, a movie actor, said something to the effect that we have 10 years of existence left because of pollution.

I remember them saying this in 1990, and many times after that.

The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report tothe Commerce Department yesterday from Consulafft, at Bergen, Norway.

Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.

----------------------

The above is from a November 2 article in the Washington Post. November 2 of 1922.

That date is legit. Even Snopes (reluctantly) admitted that the WaPo really did publish this in 1922.

Somehow, the planet has become utterly dependent on uppity liberal self-perpetuating jobs and taxes. Earth itself is reduced to jonesing for free stuff. If we don’t pay up, the looting begins (tornados, hurricanes, tsunamis). Save the climatologists!! On second thought, please don’t.

Better: send them all to the Mohave to live in a commune for the next 10 years, so they can pretend to be learning how to ‘fix’ the coming Dune scenario.

"a team of eight scientists warns that 'anthropogenic emissions need to peak within the next 10 years'..."

... compared to their research grants, which need to continue to increase at ever faster rates.

fossil fuel consumption will need to be reduced “below a quarter of primary energy supply by 2100”

It will be less than 1/4 by 2050 thanks to American innovation and no thanks to globalists and chinese copycats. The worst thing we could do right now is buy Chinese crap that will be obsolete in 10 years.

The statement was immediately repackaged by environmentalists to read: “Scientists say we have ten years to save the earth.”

In this case the word "scientists" needs to be put in parentheses, or add "so called."

I am looking forward to seeing real science being published in plain English, in order that the so-called scientists can improve and learn about the scientific method.

We will all be better for it.
