Greta will do anything for a photo opportunity. But then, she has to take the rap for it.

One way or another you will pay for the consequences of man’s impact on the climate and the relatively small amount of additional taxation now, will pale into insignificance as the worldwide impact increases year on year.
What are these impacts? And can we revisit your predictions each year to quantify them? Will you retract them when they’re proven to be false?
Good questions. Maybe Nickgnome remembers...

When New York went under water in 2015 as predicted

When the arctic ocean was summer sea ice-free in 2008/2013/2016 (etc), recalling how that came about first time with no need for all the other false predictions

When the polar bear population declined by 67% as predicted

When the continental USA warmed by 6 deg F between 1990 and 2020

When Glacier National Park held a Press Conference in front of signs that said "the glaciers will all be gone by the year 2020" because the last ice crystal vanished on 31 Dec 2019 as predicted, previously they thought they might have to remove the signs due to being embarrassingly wrong


Each of those memories would of course be fake - figments of a feverishly hot imagination.
Dont forget about the Blue Whales.
Apparently some expert rolleyes had said there wernt many of them left.
Seems he slightly underestimated the numbers, probably the same expert who calculated cutesy polar bears.

Despite manmadeup global wombling, despite acidified oceans, dead corals, collapsing plankton populations and all that other great alarmist waffle:

This, from 2004, was a good one. I stumbled upon it the other day. Regardless of the reality, or otherwise, of "man-made global heating", I find it hard to understand how an actual newspaper could have printed it as a legitimate scientific prediction.

Pentagon tells Bush: climate change will destroy us >>>> https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2004/feb/2...

Key findings of the Pentagon >>>> https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2004/feb/2...

-- by 2007 violent storms smash coastal barriers rendering large parts of the Netherlands uninhabitable
-- between 2010 and 2020 Europe is hardest hit by climatic change with an average annual temperature drop of 6F
-- climate in Britain becomes colder and drier as weather patterns begin to resemble Siberia
-- deaths from war and famine run into the millions until the planet’s population is reduced by such an extent the Earth can cope
-- riots and internal conflict tear apart India, South Africa and Indonesia
-- access to water becomes a major battleground
-- a ‘significant drop’ in the planet’s ability to sustain its present population will become apparent over the next 20 years
-- rich areas like the US and Europe would become ‘virtual fortresses’ to prevent millions of migrants from entering after being forced from land drowned by sea-level rise or no longer able to grow crops
-- immigrants from Scandinavia seek warmer climes to the south
-- Bangladesh becomes nearly uninhabitable because of a rising sea level



To be fair, the report apparently qualified the predictions of armageddon. Of course, the "newspaper" didn't.

http://web.sonoma.edu/users/s/swijtink/teaching/ph...

-- worst-case scenario
-- a drastic climate change is unlikely
-- "plausible"' consequences
-- reflects the Pentagon's policy of planning for the worst
-- based on an "abrupt climate change" that scientists say has happened in the past (is this newspeak for "unprecedented"? smile)
-- annual temperatures drop by 5 degrees Fahrenheit in North America and Asia and by 6 degrees in Europe, while temperatures rise by 4 degrees in the southern hemisphere (newspeak for "global heating", or possibly for "hedging one's bets"? smile)
-- "It's an unlikely event, and the Pentagon often thinks the unthinkable and that's all this was."

She needs taking out of public life for her own good. She can’t keep this up.

No, won’t happen. Won’t be allowed to happen.

She’ll be taken out of public life as you say and it’ll all be someone else’s fault.

The Gruniad lol. They're even worse these days, who'd have thought that possible?

For some reason I keep getting articles on my Google feed (I know why, I keep clicking on them in disbelief lol). Every single article is based around "the debate is over" on every subject they want to kid themselves on. I despair that people actually buy this rag and are taken in by the standard of journalism and choice of "story". They're not the only ones at it of course but they are certainly in the loony vanguard.

Yep!

I would not be surprised if she is martyred for the cause and a "Climate Denier/ Climate Terrorist " blamed.
