PALO ALTO, Calif. — Rising tension between Russia and the U.S., North Korea's recent nuclear test and a lack of aggressive steps to address climate change are putting the world under grave threat, scientists behind a “Doomsday Clock" that measures the likelihood of a global cataclysm said Tuesday.

The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists announced that the minute hand on the metaphorical clock remained at three minutes-to-midnight. The clock reflects how vulnerable the world is to catastrophe from nuclear weapons, climate change and new technologies, with midnight symbolizing apocalypse.

"Unless we change the way we think, humanity remains in serious danger," said Lawrence Krauss, chair of the bulletin's Board of Sponsors.

Every time a human, gyrfalcon, ermine, golden eagles, monkeys, and rabbits kill a ptarmigan, humanity is getting closer to its doom by rabbits.

Rabbits doom humans. The human race is complicit in their own destruction by rabbits.

I took them somewhat seriously until they jumped on the global warming bandwagon.
