The outgoing leader of Greenpeace has admitted his organization’s recent claim that the Arctic Ice will disappear by 2030 was “a mistake.” Greenpeace made the claim in a July 15 press release entitled “Urgent Action Needed As Arctic Ice Melts,” which said there will be an ice-free Arctic by 2030 because of global warming. Under close questioning by BBC reporter Stephen Sackur on the “Hardtalk” program, Gerd Leipold, the retiring leader of Greenpeace, said the claim was wrong. “I don’t think it will be melting by 2030. … That may have been a mistake,” he said.

Some environmentalists are building a great ponzi scheme based on fear. This reminds me how many 'prophets', ministers, pastors, etc., have provided exact dates for the Armageddon, the 2nd come, the end of the world, and have always failed... Leipold said later in the BBC interview that there is an urgent need for the suppression of economic growth in the United States and around the world. . Environmentalists scare me.
