The trend in predictions by climate, ocean, and ecology in recent years is that they were overly optimistic five or ten years ago, though I would not expect you to read any science magazines. Please just be polite about your opinions, which I know are widely held.
When I recover from my broken foot bone I will not be available to keep up my contributions as normally I am teaching or assisting charity organizations in Asia this year, currently Nepal.
I'm not anyone's enemy. My brother is a retired minister. He and his wife wish they had had the opportunities to help others in the less developed countries though they have done plenty in the US in their church, which is a fundamentalist one.

I didn't know "overly optimistic" was part of scientific analysis and conclusions. I'll be sure and look out for it when I read science magazine posts in the future.

“The five warmest years have, in fact, been the last five years,” Gavin Schmidt, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, tells the Times. “We’re no longer talking about a situation where global warming is something in the future. It’s here. It’s now.”
In addition to continuing a trend toward warmer average global temperatures, 2018 saw multiple changes or natural disasters thought to be linked to climate change, including melting of ice north of Greenland that normally stays frozen year-round; a heat wave in Australia that killed tens of thousands of wild animals; and an unusually devastating fire season in the western US.
CNN notes that the past three years have each set a record for the number of natural disasters hitting the US that caused more than $1 billion in damage. On average, there are 6.2 such events per year; in 2018, there were 14.
“Unfortunately, we’re in a situation where we see [the climate change models’ predictions have] come true,” Schmidt tells the Times. “And while that’s intellectually pleasing, it totally sucks.”
