Scientists Now Modeling Climate Change On Made-Up Planets To Push Global Doom

The famous ‘Fermi Paradox’ asks why, if life really is every bit as prevalent in the cosmos as some astrobiologists claim, with their equally famous ‘Drake Equation’ (which purports to show extraterrestrial life should be teeming just about everywhere in the universe), then where is it all? [emphasis, links added]


One possible answer might be that, once all intelligent civilizations reach a certain point of advancement, they stumble across the so-called ‘Great Filter’, a developmental obstacle that simply can never be overcome, no matter what planet you are living on, which ultimately destroys the whole species in an irreversible Mass Extinction Event.

This Great Filter was once often imagined to be a nuclear war – now, it is increasingly deemed to be climate change, a phenomenon no cutting-edge industrial civilization can supposedly ever escape from unscathed, on Earth or off it.

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
