As people across the country continue a weekend of climate change protests today, many believe the threat is far greater than the global ISIS terror war and fear the globe will be put on a death path in a dozen years.
That’s the conclusion of University of Alabama students quizzed during a protest by Young America’s Foundation.
“ISIS won’t be an issue if the Earth isn’t here ya know. Earth will be dead,” said one of the student protesters caught by YAF’s Spencer Brown during Friday’s climate strike which opened a stretch of global warming protests.
Another student, asked if climate change is an issue today, said, “We are literally threatened as a species.” She added, “We can see it today in the Alabama heat. It’s not supposed to be 95 degrees in September.”

According to the Weatherspark website, in Alabama, “Daily high temperatures decrease by 8°F, from 88°F to 80°F, rarely falling below 72°F or exceeding 95°F.”
Brown’s video was one of several posted Monday as the protests moved from campuses to city streets. Several intersections in Washington, D.C., including near the White House, were closed by climate change protests.
“Just as school administrators whip students into agitated masses by terrifying them with falsehoods about conservatives, so the left has fear mongered young people into hysterics over the allegedly imminent end of our planet. They tell the rising generation they only have a decade to save the planet and then decry conservatives for creating so-called climate anxiety, a problem of the left’s own making. These fear mongers have — disgustingly — convinced young people that climate change is more dangerous than ISIS,” Brown told Secrets.
“The Left has never been right on this front: from predictions of an impending ice age in 1975 to claims that the US would run out of fossil fuels by 1982, they use invented existential crises as a substitute for the facts they lack to push their flawed agenda,” added YAF’s spokesman.
