That’s because of money spent and regulations! They saved the planet 54 times and how dare you mock them!
Posted on 8/20/26 at 7:12 am to Major Dutch Schaefer
Just think how much money new companies made as a result of "regulation".

Did anyone notice that 8 years after AOC told us that “the world would end in 12 years due to climate change”, she got her eggs frozen and ended her engagement to look for love and children in later years?

There was a made for TV movie, can't recall the name, made in New Orleans about killer bees. At the end of the movie, the bees swarmed a character's Volkswagen Beetle...so they drove it into the Superdome and ran the air conditioning at max to stun (kill?) the bees.
Late 70's TV cheese at its finest.
ETA: ChatGPT for the win!
The movie you’re remembering is The Savage Bees (1976), a made-for-TV horror movie filmed partly in New Orleans.
The ending matches your memory almost exactly: a swarm of killer bees covers a Volkswagen Beetle, and the woman drives it through New Orleans into the Louisiana Superdome. They then lower the Superdome’s temperature enough to immobilize the bees.
It stars Ben Johnson, Michael Parks, and Gretchen Corbett, and the Superdome scenes were actually filmed at the New Orleans Superdome.

And yet pink haired trust fund white women still sky scream.

Funny at the similarities between that and communism how the amazing predictions have never come true.

The REAL "Conspiracy Nutjobs" have always been on the Left. Not to mention the left-wing sheeple like Crystal Meth Preserves who are responsible for Algore having a net worth of over $300 million.

It's almost as if this was never science at all.

Now add up all of the money taxpayers spent on this bullshite. That's more shocking than a list of silly predictions by Democrats.

And yet they continue to get press coverage.
