It IS true! The Earth WILL pass in front of the same Taurid meteor stream in 2032!
In fact, the Earth WILL pass in front of the same Taurid meteor stream in 2031! And 2030, and '29, '28, '27, '26, '25 and '24!
That’s way too many times for civilization to collapse. Can we skip a year?

I hate the pseudoscienctist Graham Hancock.

Again, you mean?
That is a fair point, and I should clarify what I mean.
There are two options of how to interpret the the doomsayer.
-
Global ice cover, which is how I initially interpreted it as meaning, then we are truly gone.
-
Partial Ice cover, here we can interpret “we” as the current civilization, that will be gone.
I did not consider scenario 2 as much as I should have, but since the author didn’t specify closer, I jumped to scenario 1 and worked from there
