Extinction, one way or another 

Why does Greta Thunberg trigger me? Because Extinction Rebellion will cause exactly that - the extinguishing of all life on the planet.

Thanks to Greta, this trivial problem of global warming hogs the limelight, the airtime and news print while the real crisis goes unchecked. By the time the sea levels rise in 30 years time, all life on the planet will be either dead or long since doomed anyway.

The truth is utterly unimaginable: the Iphone in your pocket is more lethal that the nuclear bomb. Using the same frequency as the resonance of water, its microwaves, firstly, sterilize you, secondly, fry your brain to insanity, then kill you with cancer. ( ... )

Facing a “Children of Man” type collapse of all life within 10 to 12 years, man’s worries about global warming in 30 years seems somewhat trivial as none of us are likely to live to see it.
