This guy really seems to have known his stuff, lol.
In ten years all important animal life in the sea will be extinct. Large areas of coastline will have to be evacuated because of the stench of dead fish.

Hes a real gem, certainly no Nostradamus though, lol.
By the year 2000 the United Kingdom will be simply a small group of impoverished islands, inhabited by some 70 million hungry people If I were a gambler, I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000.

Oh dear
[By] 1995, the greenhouse effect would be desolating the heartlands of North America and Eurasia with horrific drought, causing crop failures and food riots[By 1996] The Platte River of Nebraska would be dry, while a continent-wide black blizzard of prairie topsoil will stop traffic on interstates, strip paint from houses and shut down computers.
Michael Oppenheimer, published in Dead Heat, St. Martins Press, 1990

Scary stuff indeed.
Gordon Brown, said negotiators had 50 days to save the world from global warming and break the impasse. The UK faces a catastrophe of floods, droughts and killer heatwaves if world leaders fail to agree a deal on climate change, the prime minister has warned.
19 October 2009, 50 days before the Climate Change conference in Copenhagen

| Do you make a lot of sacrifices for others? I can certainly understand that. That is something I haven't heard of. |

It was slightly funnier in Woody the great's original..... "Yea, and the lamb shall lie down with the lion, but the lamb won't get much sleep"

Do you realise that this isn't how global warming works? You can't just point to an unusually cold winter in one place in the world and say "see, global warming isn't real". It's about overall long-term trends.

My wife (a girl from Sale) first saw snow in Jerusalem (with me) in 1983. The city basically came to a stand still.
We were staying in a hostel in the ultra orthodox area. Men in black, sandstone buildings everywhere & snow!! Magnificent spectacle.
An apple cake in the orthodox area, an arabic coffee in Arab East Jerusalem as we walked the 15 minutes or so to the Damascus Gate of the "Old City of Jerusalem". I can still smell the coffee now & taste the yummy apple cake. Had to put plastic bags over my socks & under my runners.
Cold as.
Of course snow in Jerusalem has zero to do with climate science. For fundamentalists & literalists it may well do but for climate science: zero relevance.
Carry on though

I presumed so - your library of Jewish humor is clearly well-stocked and your knowledge of it impressive - I still love that Nicholls and May clip - but the original was so good I just had to tell it again as it was !

This one cracks me up (it could be a bit too ethnocentric to have mass appeal but it kills me each time I watch it)
