The Doomsday Clock: 100 Seconds to Midnight

So we all just moved 20 seconds closer to global catastrophe by Nuclear Warfare and Climate Changes according to the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.

Their "doomsday clock" allegedly indicates the impending possibility for global meltdown grows ever closer.

This apocalypse could happen, but the fatalists such as those world leaders and Nobel Laureates who control this measure aren't the "be all and the end all" they might like to project.

The notion of world powers loosing nuclear weapons on an unsuspecting world is quite a bit below the threshold of international intelligence organizations and the climate change argument doesn't take into account that climate change is a cycle are repeats itself over the eons.

No, I am not some pollyanna viewing it all through rose colored glasses. I do indeed view the possibility for actions to come down. I just don't think they will be the meltdown being cautioned against.

More a localized event with recovery and devastating consequences for anyone so foolish as to perpetrate such an act thrusting those responsible into the dregs of recovery from the reactions of those affected and their allies.

Yeah, there are stupid people all around us. We may have to take our lumps ... but they surely will suffer theirs as well.
