2100 predictions on the mask the climate warming dangers we are facing NOW. I use warming because "climate change" is a political concoction to minimum the threat and make it look 80 years off. Right now in places the worst effects of climate change are happening now.
Heat waves, droughts, storms either rain or excessive snow are happening now. We are like a rocking boat where the boat rocks more each day, each month etc. We are tipping dangerously in more ways as time goes by. Denials is insane and efforts to stop remedial actions or silence scientists is really criminal.
What the HELL are we going to do if we flip without warning. These summer heat waves in the US are getting far too common. And the media is not reporting incidents of nearly unsurvivable temps in other parts of the world.
So the 2100 event predictions make the crisis look 80 years off and we have plenty of time to act. On the worse case we now have an administration called climate warming "fake news", false, a myth, despicable lies et al. And they are actively attacking and intimidating scientists.
