I'm reminded of two things.

~50 years ago they were quite concerned about global cooling and a new ice age. Go figure.

~30 years ago it was going to be over-population. Now if you look at demographics it's entirely obvious that population collapse is the real concern.

The mercurial "they" are not exactly brilliant at predicting the future.

Which reminds of something Jordan Peterson said: "There is always a crisis." Indeed. The question isn't whether there's a crisis or a perceived crisis, it's how will we handle it?

"That they do this is a tacit admission of two truths: 1) oil is money, and 2) central planners do not actually care about carbon and the climate."

The third thing they don't care about is the country.
