Doomsday Clock reads 11.57: Scientists move minute hand by 2 minutes

The Doomsday Clock’s minute hand has been moved two minutes closer to midnight as experts warn we are closer than ever to a global catastrophe.

In a live international news conference, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists (BAS) said that the threat of climate change and nuclear war posed a very serious threat to modern society.

Their symbolic clock is now set at three minutes to midnight, but while they say it is not too late to avert disaster ‘the window for action is closing rapidly’.

I wouldn't consider any of these people "scientists".

LOL!

Wackos, maybe!

If we don't get this President out of office, it will be too late.

I am sending my stash of gold and silver to Al Gore to right this ship. I suggest you all do the same. I wonder how much it would cost to ship 784 ounces to Gore? Earth needs my retirement.

It's been nearly a minute to midnight since the Cuban Missile crisis of 1962. I live little credence to this or the global warming myth.

Pretty sure people don't take this as seriously as they did during the cold war era. Once the USSR folded, the clock became irrelevant.
