One of the toughest challenges for the global warming crowd occurs when, after the passage of time, the doom they predicted is nowhere to be seen.

Dr. Jay Lehr rounded up ten prominent examples where alarming predictions by warming campaigners failed to come to pass:
In 1987, a former NASA scientist was quoted in nearly all U.S.
newspapers that by 2020 the world’s temperature would increase by 5.4
degrees Fahrenheit. The actual increase was less than a single degree
Fahrenheit.
In 1978, The Vermont Sun quoted multiple scientists
predicting that by 2020 the Earth’s CO2 concentration would double from
its then current level of 330 parts per million. It actually increased
by only about 27% to 420.
In 2009, it was predicted that China
would decrease their CO2 emissions by 40 to 45% and India by 20 to 25%.
Instead their emissions have increased in the past 11 years.
In
2008, Al Gore and most of his friends predicted the snow on Mount
Kilimanjaro would have disappeared. There has been little change at all
in its snow cap.
In 1986, U.S. EPA predicted a two foot sea level
rise for Florida in 2020. It has risen about one inch, a rate which has
been experienced for 800 years. An additional apparent rise of 3 inches
has been the result of land subsidence.
In March of 2000 at
Britainâ€s Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction and Research, scientist
David Parker told the English newspaper The Independent that British
children will soon experience snow only virtually on the internet. When
it does snow 20 years hence (2020) it will cause chaos due to its
rarity. England has not been short of normal snow.
In 2000 it was
reported by the Tarawa, Kiribati newspaper that a study by Greenpeace
indicated that Global Warming will ruin Pacific Island Nations
economies by 2020 with Tuvalu considered most critical. Tuvalu’s 2019
budget report stated that Tuvalu had enjoyed an unprecedented six
consecutive years of economic growth.
A secret Pentagon study in
2004 reported to President Bush that climate change-caused resource
shortages may cause a global war by 2020. It said that shortages of
water and energy will become increasingly harder to overcome plunging
the planet into war as it is carrying a higher population than it can
sustain. Enough said.
USA Today reported in 2013 that the Arctic
should be free of ice in the summer by 2020. The prediction was off by
3.9 million square kilometers, which was the amount of remaining ice in
September of 2020.
In 2009, The Los Angeles Times reported from a
number of government reports that it was expected that all glaciers in
Glacier National Park would be gone by 2020. The Park officials posted
signs warning visitors that the end of glaciers in the Park was near.
In 2020 no glaciers were gone but the signs were removed.
Dr. Lehr posted more details to CFACT.org.
We were just talking about the immensity of the task taken on by those of us who correct the record on climate.
Last year they told us that Australians were doomed to a future of drought and fiery punishment. Now they’re inundated with massive rainfall and floods Down Under. Oliver Sawaya fled his home near Sydney with his elderly father in a dinghy. He said his property "looked as if you were in Sydney Harbor and you were on a boat.â€
If Australia’s drought was your fault, whose fault is the flood?
You’d think the warming narrative constantly proving itself ridiculous would make our task easy.
Alas, no. As a society we are afflicted with a horrendous case of ADD.
The warming people and their compliant media count on us to have memories and attention spans that are about ten minutes long.
Watch for them to shamelessly do an about turn, and attribute Australia’s heavy rain to climate. They’ll double down on their demands to control what they believe is your over-the-top lifestyle, and the need to redistribute your nest egg as well. That an El Niño caused the drought and the subsequent La Niña the flood… well who’s going to remind you about that?
CFACT will.
