Four Weeks Left Until The Maldives Drown

On September 26, 1988, climate experts said all 1,196 Maldives Islands would drown in 30 years. That is only four weeks away.

26 Sep 1988 – Threat to islands

So far, they are batting 0.000 with their forecast.  This is what the Maldives looks like this morning.

In 1997, the President of the Maldives pleaded for help. He said Island countries were about to disappear under the seas.

25 Jun 1997, Page 1 – Standard-Speaker at Newspapers.com

Ten years ago, The Guardian said the Maldives were packing up and moving out.

Now the Guardian says the Maldives is the moral leader on climate change and is adapting by taking in tens of billions of dollars of big oil money to expand their resorts to bring in millions of more tourists.

It takes moral courage to survive expanding islands.

In climate science, islands expand as the disappear under the sea.

The Guardian says if you don’t believe the Maldives will be gone in four weeks, you are evil and must be silenced.

Climate change is not a matter for debate. We must not offer credibility to those who deny it | Letters | Environment | The Guardian

It is unfortunate the Guardian didn’t take their stance on silencing skeptics 180 years ago, when CO2 was 280 PPM and Maldives Islands actually were disappearing.

    Aw Jeez Frank, don’t bring facts into any conversation about Climate Change! I’ve read from the scientists that we are going to start having vast numbers of people dying because of climate change, just falling dead in the streets. Since they are scientists it must be true, right!?

    Spread the word that climate-related deaths are at an all-time low and they have decreased in each decade in the fossil fuel era.

    The climate has never been safer.

    Just search for “climate related deaths.”

    I still want to see it snow on a bunch of Eco-Wackos either in a tree or in their little camp in their tents freezing their little toes off while the snow is 3 feet high or more

    I have followed all of the COP meetings in the past 15 years and remember Maldives making lots of noise about their very existence being threatened.

    From the article, “Now the Guardian says the Maldives is the moral leader on climate change and is adapting by taking in tens of billions of dollars of big oil money to expand their resorts to bring in millions of more tourists.” For the developing nations climate change is all about getting money. It appears Maldives is the moral leader of the undeveloped world.

    Actually Steve I’d love to see the world end; the one that the Alarmist’s live in between their ears.

    CCDS Climate Change Derangement Syndrome. That’s what’s now and happening, not the Alarmists apocalypse.

    Thanks for the reminder Tony. Don’t you just hate it when your exaggerated claims of the end of world don’t happen?
