Where have you been? He's presented the data for years now ad nauseam.

I would not be surprised, if he has commited suicide within said 3 years or so.
Another well respected doomer (founder of #collapsenet#, forgot his name) have done just that.

Every time their ridiculously over-estimated timeline fails to materialize, they just affirm the delusions of the BAU crowd. Since the BAU crowd is the majority, the doom prophets achieve the opposite of what they want.
We need more messengers like Hanson and less of the fringe variety. We also need changes in the law where assorted shills working for fossil fuel interests cannot give science advice. Just like is the case for medicine and even stock investments.
Indeed, at the end of March 2019, it felt like an infinite scream passing through nature! On March 31, 2019, 12:00 UTC, the Arctic was 7.7°C or 13.86°F warmer than 1979-2000, as above image shows, while in parts of Alaska the anomaly was at the top end of the scale, i.e. 30°C or 54°F above 1979-2000, as discussed in an earlier post.
What caused this to eventuate? Firstly, as the Arctic is warming faster than the rest of the world, the temperature difference between the North Pole and the Equator is narrowing, which is slowing down the overall speed at which the jet stream is circumnavigating Earth, while it also is making the jet stream wavier, enabling warm air from the Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean to more easily enter the Arctic, while also enabling cold air from the Arctic to more easily descend over Asia and North America.
At the same time, global warming is making oceans warmer. Sea surface temperatures were high in the path of the jet stream on March 15, 2019, as above image shows. The sea surface was 10.8°C or 19.4°F warmer than 1981-2011 at the green circle in the left panel of above image. On that day, surface air temperature there was as high as 7.9°C or 46.2°F, and there were cyclonic wind patterns, as the right panel of above image shows.
High sea surface temperatures are causing winds over oceans to get much stronger than they used to be at this time of year.
The image on the right shows that, on March 15, 2019, the jet stream reached speeds as high as 386 km/h or 240 mph at the green circle. These stronger winds then collide at high speed with the air in front of them. This collision occurs with an even greater force, due to low temperatures over North America and due to the lower overall speed at which the jet stream circumnavigates Earth. All this makes that air gets strongly pushed aside toward the Arctic and the Equator.
On March 30, 2019, strong winds pushed warm air into Bering Strait, resulting in temperatures as high as 2.5°C or 36.4°F, as the image below illustrates.
Late last month, wind patterns over the North Pacific and North America resembled a screaming face.
The Arctic was as much as 7.7°C or 13.86°F warmer than 1979-2000, while in parts of Alaska the temperature anomaly was at the top end of the scale, i.e. 30°C or 54°F above 1979-2000.
On April 14, 2019, wind patterns over the North Atlantic resembled a growling face, as highlighted by the red ellipse on the image.
Temperatures over Greenland were as high as 14.9°C or 58.7°F at 1000 hPa at the spot marked by the green circle.
On the left, the image shows winds at 250 hPa dipping over the U.S., enabling cold winds to descend deep down over North America.

In what way was Mike Ruppert well respected?

He was right about a lot of things.

Really? Anything in particular that struck you are significant?

He was right about the CIA drug trade in Central America and here in the US. He was right about Peak Oil.
