Despite the gains of the environmental movement, considerable destruction continues to go on around us.

The human fascination with predictions of impending doom is one of the major factors in the emergence of climate change as a political issue. Some people would say that, as doomsday scenarios go, the greenhouse effect is more scientifically credible than most, and this credibility is increased through the temptation to view events such as the disastrous 1988 North American drought as the foretaste of things to come. 4, record 2, English, - doomsday%20syndrome
