Not gonna defend her but what the quote means to say is, 'if we don't stop within the next five years' we are on a doomed trajectory. Not 'we are doomed in five years.'

If you drill down to the actual predictions that she presumably is referencing, how accurate were those predictions over the past 5 years? Probably not very accurate right?

Like the Zero Barrier from Armageddon. I get it now.
Not that it makes her any less wrong.
