Top 10 Catastrophic Climate Predictions That Failed

Environmental freaks have warned of global apocalypse for decades

Andrew Stiles
March 6, 2025
It's been almost six years since the delinquent child activist Greta Thunberg promoted a so-called scientist's warning that "climate change will wipe out all of humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels" by 2023. The scientist in question, Harvard University professor James Anderson, also predicted "there will be no floating ice remaining" in the Arctic Ocean by 2022 absent a "Marshall Plan-style endeavor in which all of the world takes extreme measures to to transition off of fossil fuels completely within the next five years." That didn't happen, but climate activists are still warning that the Arctic could be ice-free at some point between 2035 and 2067.

Not surprisingly, there is a long history—dating back to the 1970s—of so-called climate scientists and government bureaucrats making catastrophic predictions about the environment that never materialized. Here are 10 of the most egregious examples. Enjoy!

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I have a book in my office...

When The Oil Runs Out (1947)

I bought it before the Bakken boom, after the boom of the 1970s-early 80s.

"Peak oil" has been an existential threat waved around for quite a while.

Out of oil, huh?

"Hold my beer!"

Until He comes "like a thief in the night", we'll have enough, and then, it won't matter.
How we distribute/use it might give other impressions, though.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
