This is pretty funny as people have been calling for some kind of human-caused apocalypse since forever.
It must be human nature for some to believe such things. To see ourselves as inherently sinful, wicked, separate from nature and deserving of punishment.
Climate alarmism has become a religion of sorts for many. Giving them maybe something to believe, maybe some purpose. At least something to talk about.
There are countless other religious sects that also believe judgement day is “right around the corner”.
