Doomsday?

From Environmental doomsday? Jesuit magazine says it's overstated:

"The article was titled, "Is the world in danger?" and the answer seemed to be: Not really. It suggested that ecological threats often are overstated. 'Real environmental problems cannot be ignored, but it's not right to exaggerate them in order to better defend the environment. Nor does it seem that these are the worst problems in this world,' said the article, written by Jesuit Father GianPaolo Salvini. After citing a number of doomsday predictions that have so far failed to materialize, the article said the media was often to blame for fueling the 'catastrophic visions' that seem to mark the modern age."
