White House: Seven in Ten Doctors Say Climate Change Is Harming Patients
weeklystandard ^ | Feb. 27, 2015 | JERYL BIER

Usually when the Obama administration is discussing doctors and health issues, Obamacare is on the table. Thursday, however, the White House threw a curve by linking health to climate change. In a new blog post, the White House declares that "7 out of 10 Doctors [say] Climate Change Is Already Harming Patients’ Health." While often the White House has been a source of upbeat reports on recent health improvements attributed in part to the Affordable Care Act, the language of this post stands in sharp contrast. For example:

"Already, 1 in 10 children in the U.S. suffers from asthma. Heat-related health problems are growing. Pollen concentrations are up. Rising temperatures are only going to bring more smog, more asthma, and longer allergy seasons that put more Americans at greater risk of landing in the hospital."

"...increases in air pollution due to climate change are worsening the severity of illnesses in their patients, and they expect these health impacts will further increase in the future."

But the cold-induced asthma is going to get a lot better.

And we’ll all be able to go for long walks and play baseball in January, and reduce our risk of hypertension and obesity and diabetes.

Yes, we will.

Doctors of what? Are these the same scientific PhD signatories to the AGW non-peer reviewed, hockey stick hoax?

What/who/where are these 'doctor's' 'patients'? Are they

The lies get more outrageous each week.

Q: How do you know when an environmentalist is lying?

A: His lips are moving.

It’s called “WINTER SUCKS”.

When the climate changes in May (fingers crossed), it will be cured.

The Obama administration has judged that the American people, as a nation, and the Republican party, as a body, have been sufficiently defeated and have been rendered sufficiently submissive to enable them to completely separate their lies form any support of reality. The sky is the limit for their deception. I hear it daily — the mainstream media unquestioning repeat their lies as if they are oracles from on high.

I wonder if it is possible for this WH to do anything other than lie about everything. Totally pathological.

OK so we have this article: "White House: Seven in Ten Doctors Say Climate Change Is Harming Patients"

Then we have this article: "Scientists Now Know Why Global Warming Has Slowed Down And It’s Not Good News For Us

In which the Climate Change Experts say: "It appears as though internal variability has offset warming over the last 15 or so years..."

OK one of the two is lying. Cuz if seven in ten Doctors are claiming Global Warming/Climate Change is adversely affecting patients then how come the Global Warming/Climate Change Experts are claiming that basically for the last 15 years no Climate Change/Global Warming has occurred...?

Increased heart attacks, back aches, & frostbite from shoveling all that snow, perhaps! Slipping on ice. Dry, chapped skin &/or cold-induced asthma (which I have) from the colder, dry air. The possibilities are endless!

Throwing anything against the wall to see if it sticks? Obama is dependent on low information idiots believing him,

Unfortunately, thanks partly to our public schools, there are a lot of them out there.

We are living in an age of great deception and great evil.
