This prediction was too pessimistic, but I'm not sure what general point you are trying to make by cherry-picking one article from 14 years ago. Care to expand?
They're trying to downplay or deny climate change, without actually taking a contradicting position, because they know that will actually get downvoted to dead.
It's cowardly and intended to further the denial position.
If you don't believe it and want to ignore science, that's your ignorance.
They've been writing the same "decade to live" headlines since the 70s.
People are jaded.
Your comment is a non-sequitur just to personally attack me for a position I didn't take.
Same issue with believing that crime is terrible now, when it's objectively not. And politicians rely on the ignorance of voters to gain power, so they have no interest in making media literacy any better.
