Candidates such as Zali Steggall in Warringah are campaigning on fear of catastrophic climate change. She wants to save the planet, one GetUp! supporter at a time.

Those of as similar mindset, hysterical climate change cultists, are putting increasingly shorter deadlines on ‘action’ to save a planet heating up with man made CO2 emissions. The prophecies have shrunk from a few decades to 12 years and now to just 10 years, if you follow US presidential candidates like Beta O’Rourke.

He’s upped Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s 12 years bid for planet doom. I hope one of the climate poker players will now raise the bets to an even shorter deadline. I want to see 5 years at most as their timing for the end of the world.

At last, alarmists will be around and very much active while their Tim Flannery-inspired prophecies are tested.

The climate alarmists could never be tested on their claims. It was always too far in the future. Until now.

If in five years’ we can call the alarmists to account – with a healthy, green planet – terrified children may breathe easy again.

Not to mention the daft politicians who have sheep-like plodded down to the vale of tears.
