Five years ago, then-California Gov. Jerry Brown said, with great certainty, that "In less than five years, even the worst skeptics will be believers." While we're not sure why some skeptics are in his mind worse than others, it's clear that he was wrong.
Wrong as the prediction of the end of snow was wrong.
Just as wrong as Prince Charles, Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Al Gore, celebrated activist James Hansen and the tiresome, we'll-have-no-coal John Kerry declaring we have fewer than 100 months or 12 years or 10 years or four years or 500 days to save Earth from the menace of man-made global warming.
We've had a half-century of various failed climate and ecological predictions, 18 of them "Spectacularly wrong," yet the carbon-obsessed doomsayers continue to insist that a planetary tragedy is imminent.
The difference between them and the end-of-the-world cults that have to recalculate the day of the apocalypse when their prophecies come and go without incident is that much of the Western world has bought into the climate zealots' hysteria.
If not for the "Worst" and best among the skeptics, the climate faithful would have free rein to make our lives worse with insect diets, carbon passports, EV mandates, energy shortages and exorbitant prices that cause death, primitive heating methods and a number of other prohibitions and requirements - and have nothing to show for it.
