Perhaps the reason they just added the 'perils of global warming' part is because global warming is now getting so serious that something needs to be done pronto ...

While I agree that global warming exists, I am not convinced that humans are the cause and notion that it is getting "so serious that something needs to be done" is unsubstantiated speculation and akin to crying wolf, in my opinion.

Aside from that, the Dooms Day Clock is just symbolic, nothing more. It's been close many times in the past.
