As if we didn’t have enough to fret about with climate change, now scientists have identified two more worrisome issues:

Nearby Star May Be Getting Ready to Explode

Wild Little Mercury to Cause Interplanetary Smashup? Maybe.

Alarmist headlines are the norm.  Climate change alarmism just takes doom-and-gloom to new limits.

At least the exploding star happens far enough away to be safe, but for the uneducated this could be a pretty scary proposition. As far as the planets colliding, the study claims this could happen in 3.3 billion years, well before our own sun wipes us out.

I’m worried. Very worried. But at least this will take my mind off the climate change crisis for a few moments.
