Aren’t you happy that the predictions of the science community on the first Earth Day had zero credibility?

Earth Day predictions of 1970. The reason you shouldn’t believe Earth Day predictions of 2009.

For the next 24 hours, the media will assault us with tales of imminent disaster that always accompany the annual Earth Day Doom & Gloom Extravaganza.

Ignore them. They’ll be wrong. We’re confident in saying that because they’ve always been wrong. And always will be.

Need proof? Here are some of the hilarious, spectacularly wrong predictions made on the occasion of Earth Day 1970.

“We have about five more years at the outside to do something.”
• Kenneth Watt, ecologist

“Civilization will end within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind.”
• George Wald, Harvard Biologist

“We are in an environmental crisis which threatens the survival of this nation, and of the world as a suitable place of human habitation.”
• Barry Commoner, Washington University biologist

“Man must stop pollution and conserve his resources, not merely to enhance existence but to save the race from intolerable deterioration and possible extinction.”
• New York Times editorial, the day after the first Earth Day

“Population will inevitably and completely outstrip whatever small increases in food supplies we make. The death rate will increase until at least 100-200 million people per year will be starving to death during the next ten years.”
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist

“By…[1975] some experts feel that food shortages will have escalated the present level of world hunger and starvation into famines of unbelievable proportions. Other experts, more optimistic, think the ultimate food-population collision will not occur until the decade of the 1980s.”
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist

“It is already too late to avoid mass starvation,”
• Denis Hayes, chief organizer for Earth Day

“Demographers agree almost unanimously on the following grim timetable: by 1975 widespread famines will begin in India; these will spread by 1990 to include all of India, Pakistan, China and the Near East, Africa. By the year 2000, or conceivably sooner, South and Central America will exist under famine conditions….By the year 2000, thirty years from now, the entire world, with the exception of Western Europe, North America, and Australia, will be in famine.”
• Peter Gunter, professor, North Texas State University

“Scientists have solid experimental and theoretical evidence to support…the following predictions: In a decade, urban dwellers will have to wear gas masks to survive air pollution…by 1985 air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching earth by one half….”
• Life Magazine, January 1970

“At the present rate of nitrogen buildup, it’s only a matter of time before light will be filtered out of the atmosphere and none of our land will be usable.”
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist

Stanford’s Paul Ehrlich announces that the sky is falling.
“Air pollution…is certainly going to take hundreds of thousands of lives in the next few years alone.”
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist

“We are prospecting for the very last of our resources and using up the nonrenewable things many times faster than we are finding new ones.”
• Martin Litton, Sierra Club director

“By the year 2000, if present trends continue, we will be using up crude oil at such a rate…that there won’t be any more crude oil. You’ll drive up to the pump and say, `Fill ‘er up, buddy,’ and he’ll say, `I am very sorry, there isn’t any.’”
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist

“Dr. S. Dillon Ripley, secretary of the Smithsonian Institute, believes that in 25 years, somewhere between 75 and 80 percent of all the species of living animals will be extinct.”
• Sen. Gaylord Nelson

“The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years,” he declared. “If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist

Keep these predictions in mind when you hear the same predictions made today. They’ve been making the same predictions for 39 years. And they’re going to continue making them until…well…forever.

Here we are, 39 years later and the economy sucks, but the ecology’s fine. In fact this planet is doing a lot better than the planet on which those green lunatics live.
Yes, this is a copy and paste as I am no scientist. Apparently neither were they.

The ice cap on Mars is melting too. Are we to blame for that?
Delina** I recycle. I conserve energy. In fact, I have a solar water heating system in my home. I am all for cleaner water and air, I simply don’t believe in man made global warming. It is a scam.

Why does anyone scam another? For money. Many, many people are getting very rich off this, Al Gore included.

Why do people join gangs?

Now ,I don’t want to read a whole bunch of nonsense saying;
“Well,it all has to do with where they live…”or “It’s not their fault,
their parents weren’t around..”,and last but not least,my favorite;
“They do it to feel accepted..”These are cop outs,that are obviously
trying to get around the underlying issues,as to why these otherwise
good kids turn to a life of terrorism,and violence.I was born and raised
in San Francisco,Ca.I now live elsewhere,but still in California.And the
neighborhood in which I grew up,wasn’t the safest,but surely wasn’t
the most dangerous.A lot of people who join gangs tend to live in pretty
bad neighborhoods.

However,I see a lot of people who live in these places,and don’t turn to
crime,and random acts of violence to achieve their goals of happiness.
I often drive through San Francisco,and see how bad things have gotten
in my old neighborhood.Just the other day I saw 3 guys beating up one
guy who wasn’t even dressed like a thug.They beat him pretty bad and ran
off with his stuff.The perpetrators who did this were about 16 or 17 years of age.
Sometimes I’ll watch TV and find myself watching shows on NATGEO channel.
Many times on that channel,I will see shows based on gangs from around the world.
Unfortunately,most if not all the gangs come from either Africa,or Latin America.
This bothers me because I am Latino.And these punks are giving us a bad reputation.

Why do people want to live like this?I know you’re probably thinking that it’s ignorant of
me to be saying this. But it’s really not.I don’t understand why they choose to go through
life intimidating and killing people.Is it laziness?Are they too inept to work like everyone else?
I understand a lot of these people can’t find work.But that’s no reason to rob people of their
hard earned money.The neighborhood I currently reside in is a pretty decent low crime area.
But I still see residents of this community idolizing gang bangers.It really makes no sense.They
are living in a decent area,devoid of gangs.Yet here these kids are trying to mimmick terrorists.
And yes I said terrorists.

Just because they don’t walk down the street carrying RPG7-V’s,AK-47’s,ski masks,and chanting
“Alah Akbar”,doesn’t mean they are not terrorists!The word terrorist in its purest form of
terminology means to “terrorize”.And is that not what they do?I would be lying if I said they
don’t scare me.Because they do scare me.A lot!When I see a police officer,I feel great respect for
them.And a cop carries a gun,2 actually.And often has a shotgun and M16 assault rifle in their car.
But I’m not scared of cops.In fact I appreciate them.You don’t see police officers robbing people
(well atleast not in the US);but you do see gang members robbing people.And the single most
terrifying aspect of these thugs is the complete lack of respect toward law enforcement.i mean they
are more than just disrespectful.They have absolutely no fear of being caught,or in some horrific
cases,shooting at cops.Now if cops can’t sway these criminals into not committing senseless crimes,then
what will?

Robbed while under anesthetic?

Hi guys, i need some advice on this. I was travelling through Africa last year by train with my gf. We had our own compartment on the train and alot of our stuff was stolen from it during the night. We woke up in the morning, after SERIOUSLY oversleeping and both felt very drowsy and sick and our phones, ipods, her laptop and even travellers checks were stolen!!! We didnt accept any drinks from anyon or anything like that the night before. Is it posible that some got into out room and put chloroformed cloths or gas masks over our noses to put us deeper asleep? Has anyone heard of this? Our stuff was all over the room and it would’ve taken along time to find it all, i’m sure we would’ve woken up if we weren’t given anesthetic.

Can someone help me with my Spanish homework?

Necesito alguien traducir este reseña de Madagascar 2. Hablo de una traducción literal de un hablante nativo. ¡Gracias!

“Madagascar,” the 2005 animated film that brought us pampered zoo critters Alex the lion, Marty the zebra, Melman the paranoid hypochondriac giraffe and Gloria the hippo (and the penguins, don’t forget those crafty penguins) pulled in about half a billion dollars at the box office. The sequel, “Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa,” is a better film, though — less manic, more easygoing.

The first movie referenced so many other movies so indiscriminately, from “Chariots of Fire” to “Planet of the Apes” to “American Beauty,” watching it was like being caught on a bus with a bunch of screenwriters on the way to a wisenheimer convention. The new one lays off that stuff, comparatively, and while there are booger jokes and such, you’ll likely avoid that “Over the Hedge” headache so many of these critter outings instill.

Marooned on Madagascar, Alex (voiced by Ben Stiller), Marty ( Chris Rock), Melman ( David Schwimmer) and Gloria ( Jada Pinkett Smith) yearn for home in the Central Park Zoo, where starry-eyed, egocentric Alex’s antics have made him “king of New York.” The penguins rig up an old, busted plane, slingshot fashion, and zing the quartet (plus stowaways) not to Manhattan, but to Africa, somewhere near Mt. Kilimanjaro.

From there, “Escape 2 Africa” begins a serious poaching session on “Lion King” territory. Alex finds his parents — the late Bernie Mac provides the voice of daddy Zuba, big mane on campus — and with obvious allusions to Scar in “The Lion King,” Alec Baldwin lends his sterling basso distrusto voice to jealous Makunga, a petty and venal lion indeed, who exploits naive, showbizzy Alex for his own political gain.

When I say “Escape 2 Africa” goes easy on the pop culture jokes, I should clarify: One of the smarter things in the script is how Alex, who digs his Bob Fosse and Jerome Robbins dance moves, becomes the film’s primary pop-cult gag. (When he suits up for ceremonial battle, a fight he doesn’t realize will involve actual fighting, his war paint includes a dandy pair of tragic/comic masks.) This allows the rest of the movie to spread out and ease up in other ways, exploring other avenues.

And, naturally, most of the elements that made “Madagascar” all those millions are back, including lemur leader King Julien (Sacha Baron Cohen with a wittily un-peggable dialect), and the song — the song — “I Like to Move It.”

Screenwriter-directors Eric Darnell and Tom McGrath were joined this time by co-writer Etan Cohen. The visual style is typical, ultra-crisp computer animation, bright, sharp, somewhat clinical.

I took my kid and three of his pals to an Imax screening, and while I could’ve done without the film’s martial arts slapstick involving the cranky old outer-borough lady on safari, in a role expanded from her Grand Central Station cameo in the first picture, well, if there’s one thing parenthood teaches anybody in this country, it’s that boys rarely fail to laugh at someone gettin’ it in the ‘nads from a senior citizen.

Reviews from our second-grade posse: “Really liked it.” “Four million stars.” “Five million stars.”

Looking for name of movie.?

I remember see this video on stage6 (divx answer to youtube) and I caught the first few minutes of this movie. I believe it was a hammer horror picture or something like that. The opening was this english woman is in africa in a house and these really sterotypical africans (which giant witch doctor shields and masks) break in and abduct her. Anyone remember that movie?
