It’s common knowledge at this point that pretty much every prediction ever made by climate activists has turned out to be completely false. But, for the most part, all along, there’s one thing these activists have been smart enough to do. They’ve typically made predictions that were pretty far out into the future. They didn’t say anything that could be proven wrong within a couple of months. They knew enough to create some distance between their prediction, and the day you could theoretically point to that prediction and say, “Well, that didn’t pan out.”
There are a lot of examples of this phenomenon. There’s Leonard Nimoy, a.k.a. Mr. Spock, claiming in a 1978 television special that, “during the lifetime of our grandchildren, arctic cold and perpetual snow could turn most of the inhabitable portions of our planet into a polar desert.” That TV special was called “The Coming Ice Age.” Of course, by the time Mr. Spock’s prediction was falsifiable, he was near death, so no one was going to hold him accountable, or say “I told you so” while he was on his deathbed.
