Dems have been creating crisis after crisis to scam the taxpayers for trillions, especially crisis that aren’t even there, like the recent SPLC revelations

I know I have posted this before but it's time to do it again. These mofo fraudsters are always wrong yet the left, Hollywood, academia and all DEMOCRATS keep the lie going

Below are the 41 failed doomsday, eco-pocalyptic predictions (with links):

1. 1967: Dire Famine Forecast By 1975
2. 1969: Everyone Will Disappear In a Cloud Of Blue Steam By 1989 (1969)
3. 1970: Ice Age By 2000
4. 1970: America Subject to Water Rationing By 1974 and Food Rationing By 1980
5. 1971: New Ice Age Coming By 2020 or 2030
6. 1972: New Ice Age By 2070
7. 1974: Space Satellites Show New Ice Age Coming Fast
8. 1974: Another Ice Age?
9. 1974: Ozone Depletion a ‘Great Peril to Life (data and graph)

11. 1980: Acid Rain Kills Life In Lakes (additional link)
12. 1978: No End in Sight to 30-Year Cooling Trend (additional link)
13. 1988: Regional Droughts (that never happened) in 1990s
14. 1988: Temperatures in DC Will Hit Record Highs
15. 1988: Maldive Islands will Be Underwater by 2018 (they’re not)
16. 1989: Rising Sea Levels will Obliterate Nations if Nothing Done by 2000
17. 1989: New York City’s West Side Highway Underwater by 2019 (it’s not)
18. 2000: Children Won’t Know what Snow Is
19. 2002: Famine In 10 Years If We Don’t Give Up Eating Fish, Meat, and Dairy
20. 2004: Britain will Be Siberia by 2024
21. 2008: Arctic will Be Ice Free by 2018
22. 2008: Climate Genius Al Gore Predicts Ice-Free Arctic by 2013
23. 2009: Climate Genius Prince Charles Says we Have 96 Months to Save World
24. 2009: UK Prime Minister Says 50 Days to ‘Save The Planet From Catastrophe’
25. 2009: Climate Genius Al Gore Moves 2013 Prediction of Ice-Free Arctic to 2014
26. 2013: Arctic Ice-Free by 2015 (additional link)
27. 2014: Only 500 Days Before ‘Climate Chaos’
28. 1968: Overpopulation Will Spread Worldwide
29. 1970: World Will Use Up All its Natural Resources
30. 1966: Oil Gone in Ten Years
31. 1972: Oil Depleted in 20 Years
32. 1977: Department of Energy Says Oil will Peak in 1990s
33. 1980: Peak Oil In 2000
34. 1996: Peak Oil in 2020
35. 2002: Peak Oil in 2010
36. 2006: Super Hurricanes!
37. 2005 : Manhattan Underwater by 2015
38. 1970: Urban Citizens Will Require Gas Masks by 1985
39. 1970: Nitrogen buildup Will Make All Land Unusable
40. 1970: Decaying Pollution Will Kill all the Fish
41. 1970s: Killer Bees!

Update: I’ve added 9 additional failed predictions (via Real Climate Science) below to make it an even 50 for the number of failed eco-pocalyptic doomsday predictions over the last 50 years.

42. 1975: The Cooling World and a Drastic Decline in Food Production
43. 1969: Worldwide Plague, Overwhelming Pollution, Ecological Catastrophe, Virtual Collapse of UK by End of 20th Century
44. 1972: Pending Depletion and Shortages of Gold, Tin, Oil, Natural Gas, Copper, Aluminum
45. 1970: Oceans Dead in a Decade, US Water Rationing by 1974, Food Rationing by 1980
46. 1988: World’s Leading Climate Expert Predicts Lower Manhattan Underwater by 2018
47. 2005: Fifty Million Climate Refugees by the Year 2020
48. 2000: Snowfalls Are Now a Thing of the Past
49.1989: UN Warns That Entire Nations Wiped Off the Face of the Earth by 2000 From Global Warming
50. 2011: Washington Post Predicted Cherry Blossoms Blooming in Winter

But somehow this time will be different, and the ‘experts’ and 16-year olds of today will suddenly be correct in their new predictions of eco-doom and eco-disaster? Not.

Enough to buy a $10 million dollar house on the coast that he assured us would have been flooded by now.

"Did"? He's the father of "carbon credits" so he's probably still making so much money he could wipe his arse with c-notes and not realize any money was missing from his accounts.

Killer Bees!


That is one they like to cycle every once and awhile.

NBC actually made a Made for TV movie called Savage Bees that was set in New Orleans.

The premise Africanize bees attack a child and start heading to the city. It is Mardi Gras and fear sets in.

In the climax the bees get attracted to a Volkswagen Beatle that is rolled into the Superdome to chill it to under 45 degrees.



Fox did another killer bee movie back in the 1990’s.

Heck even CBS did a made for TV mini series on Climate change in the future in the 1990’s. It was filmed in Morgan City and New Orleans up until a hurricane displaced them and they moved to Canada.

There should be severe consequences for politicians pushing outright lies like this.

I went to see that movie at a tiny art theater in Eugene Oregon. I was probably the only one in there that called it bullshite back then.

Doomsday climate predictions are the leftist progressives version of Iran will have a nuclear weapon in “insert time frame here”.

Can you prove this DIDN'T happen?

Maybe we're all just living in a blue steam induced simulation?

Climate change was a favorite of globalists because individual nations can't stop it. We must have a global govt. Picture the U.N. in charge of everything. Hell, the U.N. was created to stop wars. That didn't work.

Billions paid to the swamp rats and Democrats NGO bullshite. Yet here we are in the present day and Democrats still cry Trump Trump instead of pointing fingers at all the Billions stolen of our tax dollars. They don't care about hard working AMERICANS.
