Even The Pentagon Doesn't Always Get It Right

It's 2020, and you know what that means--gotta point out how some silly prediction about 2020 didn't come true.  This time the target is the Pentagon:
In 2004, The Guardian reported on a Department of Defense climate-change report that would prove "hugely embarrassing" for President George W. Bush. The report predicted that climate change could be America's greatest national security threat. Yet these climate-change predictions, like so many others, proved nearly the opposite of the truth. Among other things, the report predicted nuclear war, endemic conflict over resources, and European cities underwater by 2020.

None of these things happened.  link
Another story about the same report:
Summary: In February 2004, headlines in The Guardian and other news media told us of a secret DoD report predicting a climate catastrophe by 2020. Read the study and gain perspective about today’s warnings of a Climate Emergency.  link
Part of the reason I don't believe the preachings of the Church of Global Warming is because they've been wrong every. single. time. without exception.
