In 2009, he was telling the Guardian that "we may face planet-wide devastation worse even than unrestricted nuclear war between superpowers". "I made a mistake," the 92-year-old scientist now says."

At last SOME of them are moving towards telling the truth!!!!1 Quoting: Aussie Coward 9871126 Nobody else ever said: "billions of us will die". Few took him serious. I think Dr. Lovelock got a bit kooky in his advanced age. This has no bearing on actual climate projections. Reaching for the sky makes you taller. Hi! My name is Halcyon Dayz and I'm addicted to morans. |
