Breitbart Reports: We had five years to stop using fossil fuels to prevent wiping out “all of humanity” from June 21st 2018, Greta Thunberg claimed in a now-deleted Tweet.
[Yesterday] is the anniversary of a doomsday prediction made by Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg when she was just 15 years old June 21st 2018, stating the human race had five years to end fossil fuels or face certain death. She wrote then:
A top climate scientist is warning that climate change will wipe out all of humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years.
While these alarming, but later forgotten warnings with very definite and certain sounding timescales are a major part of green propaganda , this particular instance has taken on a life of its own due to the Streisand Effect , given as the deadline date approached Thunberg was caught having deleted the claim .

You wrote: "...climate change caused by human activity IS a REAL thing..." ---according to? Actually, a rhetorical question. For every climate alarmist, I could provide at least another one person representing Real Science compared to those from The Science, Trade Mark. The Science, Trade Mark, was highlighted during covid in the constant moving of the goal posts to keep the narrative going, but I digress. There are a few items you may not be aware of, like 1) Climategate, which took place starting around 2009. Much information if you dig deeper than The Science, Trade Mark articles and self described "fact checkers" to get to what actually happened which was the manipulation of data around climate change. You'll hear a lot about the hacked computer, to make you think "oh, how unethical" rather than how unethical it was to compromise the data to suit their own ends. 2) The IPCC, which is basically a tentacle of the UN (think Agenda 21 and Agenda 30) and their (mad) scientists - who have been so wrong so many times - and the data they put out has been orchestrated and compromised to where we are today. For more info on the techniques used, look up "Big Lie" on Wikapedia (which is also known for manipulation; see Phillip Cross affair for one of many examples). That's how things are done today. Same playbook followed for how covid-1984 was handled. 3) A quote from NASA: "The most surprising result (during covid lockdowns), the authors noted, is that while carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions fell by 5.4% in 2020, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere continued to grow at about the same rate as in preceding years." Per usual, the debate is about why this is happening, and why there is less CO2 in the atmosphere today than during covid lockdowns. Wonderful to watch the contortionists, er, The Science, Trade Mark people trying to explain this. 4) They taught us in K12 during the 60's and 70's that the earth was in imminent danger and heading into an ice age. Suddenly, from ice age to global warming, without explanation. Typical when dealing with The Science, Trade Mark. 5) Last - yet I could go on and on and on! Here's the thing: Real Science is always learning and debating the knowledge. Real Science is never settled (still people researching Einstein's e=mc2 and finding inconsistencies - as it should be) so one should ALWAYS see a red flag when people are told the science is settled on climate change and there will be no debate because anyone who doesn't agree is a climate denier, whatever that means. And yet, there are thousands of Real Scientists out there, all around the world, who don't agree with the claims from The Science, Trade Mark, and they are being mocked, ridiculed, ad hominem attacks, et al ad nauseam, all against these Real Scientists who dare show integrity by being Real Scientists and questioning data. Because that is how Real Science works. So when you see this happening in any field (like vaccinations and so many other areas), people with critical thinking skills should see red flags waving. The pity is, most people don't have critical thinking skills these days; their heads are too far up their "smart" phones. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/87690ea60f2790e805906005d6a57a2199a1c4834ad2e693237bfc218e3a2d5f.jpg

Well, my wife is a professor and works with renewable energy, because climate change caused by human activity IS a REAL thing, but to say that we're all doomed now is maaaaaybe a tad exaggerated... my wife thinks so too. A real concern is also pollution of the air and oceans... these are also real. Think about people living in big city metropols like Bangkok, Manila, Beijing, Mumbai etc.... not great, I can tell you... people have to wear masks just to be able to breathe. Our food sources are not safe either as they are full of plastic. These problems are real and human made. This can be turned around for the better if so-called climate activists and their counterparts stop behaving like crazy people and just acknowledge that we have a problem that needs to be solved.

The whole 'climate change'/'global warming' idea is a mighty scam. It's designed to keep a load of dishonest scientists in lucrative tenured situations at hundreds of universities throughout the West. It's also useful for the politicians and can be used to beat the ordinary citizen about the head and make him do things he doesn't want to do.
