Fact. If we carry on as we are now, we will render large regions of the world uninhabitable. I am a climate scientist. Unlike yours, this sadly isn't an alternative fact.https://twitter.com/JuliaHB1/status/1117814772832010242 …

if by 'these predictions' you're referring to those two studies about the year 2100, well then obviously the answer to that is 2100. if you mean when will we start to observe the impacts of temperature and sea level rise as predicted by models, see

I think the predictions made in 1977 were pretty good:pic.twitter.com/kPB3sCE8yR

In 1912 their prediction of "The effect may be considerable in a few centuries" is, unfortunately very inaccurate.pic.twitter.com/dxVrdkGME2

I got told when I was 6 the ice caps will melt and southern England would be flooded. Everyone was terrified senseless. I’m now 41 and living in one of the highest hills in England. Still waiting?

Similar here in Wiltshire over 500 feet up

The globe hasn't warmed a smegging inch in 20 years. The predictions of doom made over the past 40 years have proved 100% wrong. And if climate change makes some areas uninhabitable (it won't, humans adapt, that's our thing) then it must surely make other areas more habitable.

The problem with the climate-change lobby is that they're so convinced they're right, they cannot be reasoned with. To that extent, they're much like remainers - both groups are effectively cults.

Thank you Julia. Multiple things we see and observe makes the evidence overwhelming and can make us very certain that climate breakdown is real, it’s caused by us, it’s very serious and we got little time to respond.

A common myth that can mislead us is: if we aren’t 99% sure about exactly what will happen then there is not worth listening to the 99% of what we know. This is called impossible expectations.

We wouldn’t put our selves or our children in an airplane by saying we are only 99% sure it will crash that would be taking a risk for a certain deadly accident and very irresponsible. The thing we need to do for preventing a crash is to cut fossil fuels and emissions fast.

Julia, my doctor can’t tell me which day I’ll die and so should I believe him when he says smoking 40 fags a day will kill me?

And what will you do when you are proven wrong? Bit of a cop out for you to not act any different until 2100 as if you’d be alive then.
