Question : Are global warming alarmists all really survivalists at heart?
I’m sure you must have noticed by now the tendency towards apocalyptic fin-de-siècle doom amongst those who espouse the theory of man-made global warming. It’s like many of them secretly can’t wait for the end of civilization, so they can retreat to their cabin in some remote location far away from other people.

So, I looked up “survivalist scenarios and outlooks” on Wikipedia, and found remarkable similarities. For example, their world-view and outlook for the future. Read on and decide for yourself . . .

Apparently, these are some of the “”Survivalist scenarios and outlooks”" [quote]

Natural Disaster, Indefinite/Multi-Generational – Possible scenarios include: severe global warming and the possible ensuing ice age, the greenhouse-effect-gone-wild, environmental degradation,[29] warming/cooling of gulf steam waters, large meteor strike,[30] shift in earth’s axis or reversal of geo-magnetic fields.

Natural Disaster, Years Long – Concerned about long term weather cycles of 2–10 years, unusually cold or warm periods, that have happened on and off for thousands of years, and that cause crop failures.[27] Might stock several tons of food per family member and have a heavy duty greenhouse with canned non-hybrid seeds.[28]

Malthusian – Soaring increase in world’s uncontrolled human population growth impacts available fresh water, food, health-care, environment, economics, consumerism, spread of diseases and just about every other facet of life. Projections indicate that world population of 6.6 billion may again double in fifty years. Some warn that this will result in a Malthusian population crash.[31]

Peak Oil Doomers – The Doomers are convinced that Peak Oil is a genuine threat,[37] and take appropriate measures,[38] usually involving relocation to a Survival retreat region that is agriculturally self-sufficient.[39]

Doesn’t that read almost exactly like many of the postings by alarmists here on YA? Too many people, polluted water, global warming, peak oil, etc, etc.

So, rationalists, what do you think – are alarmists all really survivalists at heart?

And alarmists, do you recognise your worries in the lists above – and is your cabin ready yet or not?
