Climate Tricks 44, Scary predictions in 2009

We should be scared, very scared, very worried, of "man-made" warming and climate change. Hence, we should send more money to governments, the UN, Al Gore, WWF,Greenpeace, other planet saviours. We should accept more government environmental regulations, taxation, energy cronyism, and they will save the planet for us. 

Below are predictions by some noted climate crusaders. Links and screen shots of headlines are given for verification. Enjoy. Err, be worried. :-)

On January 2009 (6 1/2 years ago), top climate alarmist US scientist James Hansen said we should have "global flooding, widespread species loss... collapse of ice sheets..." Many of us should have drowned or been mutilated, not today but twi years ago. Very bright, precise, prediction.

Also 6 years ago, October 2009, the WWF (and its planet saviours in the PH like Lory Tan, Yeb Sano, Vince Perez, etc.) said the "point of no return" was last year, not this year or next year. Very bright, precise prediction. http://www.abc.net.au/.../five-years-to-save.../1108482

And also 6 years ago, March 2009, Prince Charles said ("man-made") global warming has already reached a defining moment. Very bright, precise prediction. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/.../Global-warming-has-reached...

July 2009 or 74 months ago, Prince Charles made this bright, bold prediction. We shd be very scared, very worried, only 22 months left... and capitalism and consumerism will kill us. http://www.independent.co.uk/.../just-96-months-to-save...

Former UK PM Gordon Brown beat all of them in giving clear, explicit warning. Only 50 days or end-2009, 50 days, to save the planet. Very bright prediction. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8313672.stm

Hoops, this Canadian MP and member of the Green Party, even beat Mr. Gordon Brown. Not 4 years, not 50 days, but only "hours" to save the planet. Prediction made in March 2009. These guys are very bright in climate predictions.  http://www.thestar.com/.../we_have_hours_to_prevent...
