10 Aug: Climate change disaster – just the latest in 50 years of end-of-the-world predictions

In the 1970’s it was disastrous famine, then a new ice age, then ozone’s Great Peril to Life”. Then “Acid Rain Kills Life in Lakes” Then global warming became the new threat to life on this planet. When temperatures refused to rise over the past twenty years, global warming quietly disappeared, re-emerging as climate change. Now every unusual climate event can be attributed to climate change. Thanks to the Competitive Enterprise Institute for this collection of dud predictions.
