The best thing about your prediction is that during the lives of the "scientists" who are deriding the practice of skepticism nobody can prove them wrong because the long term prediction is based on a multiple millennium trend that none of us will live to see.

The joke is on those who are quick to believe the latest fad. Are we laughing at the "real scientists" that warned of the impending ice age a third of a century ago? If so people will be laughing at the "real Scientists" who predict dire warnings of global warming.

FWIW BBC is a bastion of leftism even more severe than the NYTimes and the leftwing media establishment in the US. Anyone who thinks that journalists always get it right needs a dose of skepticism. Anyone that hangs their hat on known biased journalists needs a bigger dose.
