Once relegated to the fringes of society inhabited by cults and conspiracy, doomsday fears have spread to America’s super-rich...
...and according to a new report by the New Yorker, US millionaires and billionaires are busy prepping for the end of the world.
Many are said to envision complete societal collapse triggered by wealth inequality, political divisions, and civil unrest...
...and they are allegedly stockpiling gold, hoarding canned foods, buying remote islands, and building impenetrable bunkers.
Much of the planning is being done in private Facebook groups where members share secret locations and survivalist plans...
...including tips such as “keep a helicopter gassed up at all times,” and advice on what weapons offer the best protection.
Silicon Valley’s tech titans, in particular, appear concerned about a severe backlash when AI begins taking over more jobs.
Some estimate that at least 50% of their fellow tech billionaires have purchased secret hideaways as “apocalypse insurance”...
...and buying secluded land in New Zealand is said to have become a new a new secret “Masonic handshake.”
Among those is venture capitalist Peter Thiel who is accused of quietly “buying” his way into New Zealand citizenship in 2011...
...a curious revelation that emerged after his prominent involvement in Donald Trump’s “America First” presidential campaign...
In the “2017 Doomsday Clock Statement,” the Science and Security Board Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists issued this statement:
“To: Leaders and citizens of the world” “Re: It is 30 seconds closer to midnight”
The Doomsday Clock is a symbolic warning reflecting how close Earth is to “midnight” - a nuclear or existential catastrophe...
...and the Bulletin is updated annually after consulting with global security experts and the world’s top scientists.
Now at 2 and a half minutes to midnight, the clock is closer to Armageddon than any time since the dawn of the Cold War...
...when in 1953 it approached 2 minutes to midnight following competing hydrogen bomb tests between the US and Soviet Union.
Although the clock now measures other risks besides nuclear annihilation, new concerns were raised about “nuclear rhetoric”...
...with the destabilization of NATO and unpredictable actions of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin seen as existential threats.
Other risks identified include the prospect of runaway climate change and the dangers of emerging technologies...
...including cyberwarfare, autonomous weapons systems, and the use of Crispr gene-editing to develop unstoppable bioweapons...
2016 was the warmest year ever recorded in the Arctic, but 2017 is already beginning with temperatures scientists can’t explain.
High temperatures are fluctuating wildly and are predicted to rise 50 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius) above normal.
Arctic scientists are reportedly “stunned” by the above freezing readings and believe they are “beyond even the extreme.”
They fear that humans are surely responsible and are altering how the Arctic climate works beyond the understanding of science.
The abnormal temperatures are producing “frightening charts” with “scary weird” readings of global sea ice cover...
...and the Arctic appears to be on track to become completely ice-free at some point in the next 30 years.
A new 2017 NOAA report has warned that sea levels may also be rising much faster than anyone initially expected...
...with updated estimates suggesting a worst-case scenario 8-foot (2.5 m) rise in global mean sea level by 2100.
If the Arctic has entered a “death spiral,” some scientists fear a “pulse of up to 50 gigatons of methane” could be released.
A rapid feedback loop of global warming would destroy food production, render areas of the world uninhabitable, and trigger war...
According to statisticians at the Institute of Cosmos Sciences, the human race has a 1 in 500 chance of being wiped out in 2017...
...an updated calculation based on the Doomsday Argument that predicts the number of future humans that can still be born.
The announcement came just as physicist Stephen Hawking has issued his own apocalyptic warning...
...predicting that life on Earth faces numerous perils and is likely to be wiped out by the year 3017.
Hawking has previously spoken about the serious risks of artificial intelligence turning on humanity...
...but he is now also highlighting the cumulative probability of an asteroid impact in setting Earth’s expiration date.
Hawking’s date is meant to serve as a deadline for the human race to “spread out into space and to other stars.”
Already in 2017, at least 4 large asteroids have just missed the Earth, passing at distances closer than the moon.
None were detected more than a few days prior to their approach, leaving no time for interception had there been any danger...
A number of experts on biblical prophecy believe that a 2017 solar eclipse may usher in the end times...
...as indicators pointing to the second coming of Jesus and Armageddon appear to be converging on the date of August 21st.
The prediction is based on the cryptic 6th Seal of the Book of Revelation in which the sun is to turn “as black as sackcloth”...
...followed by the Great Tribulation in which God’s wrath destroys the Earth in a series of cataclysmic events.
The August 21st eclipse is thought to be the first in over a century to pass over the entire US from East to West...
...and the date happens to coincide with the 70th anniversary of the UN mandate that established the nation of Israel.
Some believe that a Biblical generation lasts 70 years, fearing the promise of the “last days” as stated in Matthew 24:34:
“Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened”...
...and opposition to Donald Trump’s promised move of the US embassy to Jerusalem may be a trigger as God warns in Zechariah 12:3:
“I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces”...
