Is a slow catastrophe any less a catastrophe? Though I suppose some will take comfort in that the catastrophe is slow because then it's not their problem, just a problem for everyone who fails to die before it gets much worse.
Just to be sure, though, they should probably not plan to linger in or near
Well, the people who said, 10 or so years ago, that billions would die in 5 years time, were shown to be wrong.
I suggest you research "Extinction Rebellion". They are master catastrophists.
And Al Gore(y) and the rest of his troop, predicted a number of catastrophes, like "Even the rain that falls won't reach the damns" type events, that didn't eventual.
Polar bears have significantly grown in numbers as another example. It seemed that stopping them from being hunted to extinction had something/k to do with that. lol
And there are a lot more examples that I am sure you will dismiss, also.
Did you know that grain crop harvests, in particular, have grown enormously because of the small rise in temperature?
Plants luv CO2. It is plant food, after all.
Consider:
Covid prefers colder weather. Perhaps "god" is intervening and helping us with that.
