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!
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...
I was with you, and agree with your Greta point, that she could weasel out of it.
But you lost me with the earth getting swallowed up. The earth will be remade when Christ returns, which will be long before any sun-swallowing earth scenarios.
Our sun won’t supernova. It’s too small. It will just burn out.
Agreed.
If you don’t stop smoking in five years, you’ll probably die of lung cancer someday.
But if I really loved somebody, I’d leave out the words “probably” and “someday”.
So Greta really loves mother erf or she’s an attention whore.
I think the oceans boil in about 400 million years. The Sun is getting hotter, something like 10 percent hotter every billion years or so.
Exactly. It was left menacingly in the air about when Earth’s demise would arrive.
The whole Climate Change movement against carbon, the basic chemical of all living things, that is in continuous recycle sustaining all life, is a death cult. And that little enraged Swede hectoring the world had (I’m sure still has) the perfect face for one.

Ahhh, the scientific approach: cause and effect.

See?...climate change will destroy all of humanity...like 10,000 degrees of climate change.
