Oh dear, so many people not paying attention to the evolution of our alarmist insights.
We may have told you that the snows of Kilimanjaro and Chipping Sodbury were things of the past. We may have told you the polar bears are all but destroyed already. We may have told you that the glaciers of the high Himalaya were retreating so fast that modern snapshots of them are all blurred. We may have told you that accelerating sea level rise will swamp island after island state faster than you could build a new airport. We may have told you that round about now the streets of Manhattan would be awash with the foaming briny, and yellow-painted gondolas would be plying over Times Square. We may have told you that hurricanes of uncommon fierceness and frequency were going to follow hot on the heels of Katrina. We may have told you that Antarctica was disappearing, and the Arctic ice and the Greenland ice were worth going to see before it was too late. We may have told you that the Great Barrier Reef was being destroyed by global warming. We may have told you that drought was the new permanent Big Dry across the way from that big piece of crumbling coral. We may have done all that and much much more, but what we simply forgot to add was that all these things will be hidden from sight for a few decades. It's all in the models - we can rake through the heaps of output anytime you like to find anything we like as and when we need it so don't you dare challenge us on that score.
But the point is this. Although the dark forces of Natural Variability are obscuring from you the signals that the anointed can currently see so very clearly, they are there. They are growing. And on that awful day of judgement, mere decades away, there will be a great toing and froing, vapours and photons and thermal vibrations of a physical kind will rise from the deeps and smite right left and centre! And all of our prophecies will come true. We just got the timing a bit wrong is all.
