re: When did "climate change" go from being a problem to an apocalyptic event?

First, they are not saying it will only go up 1 degree. In fact, it has already gone up 1 degree F. Thirty years ago they were saying that by 2025, or 2050 at the latest, the average temp if we did not do anything drastic, would rise (this is from memory) 3.5 to 6.5 deg F). We have risen 1.1 deg F, so they were full of shite - didn’t even achieve half of their minimum amount in their minimum time frame. Clowns!
