STOCKHOLM (AP) -- Climate change could push more than 100 million people into extreme poverty by 2030 by disrupting agriculture and fueling the spread of malaria and other diseases, the World Bank said in a report Sunday.

Released just weeks ahead of a U.N. climate summit in Paris, the report highlighted how the impact of global warming is borne unevenly, with the world's poor woefully unprepared to deal with climate shocks such as rising seas or severe droughts.

More Barbara Striesand from the Enemedia.

Expect more and more of these fantasy stories as the Paris climate talks take place next month.

I expect 0bama to try to ruin America's Christmas by announcing on Christmas Eve more "resolutions" in the form of higher energy taxes and mandatory purchasing of carbon offsets.

Of course, to save the planet, donchaknow.

20 trillion in debt will result in at least 300 million poor.

Roll the climate back far enough and when the dinosaurs return they’ll eat the poor.

Problem solved.

Maybe I’m too obtuse, but I would think global cooling would be more disruptive to agriculture.

You're close.

Green is the new RED.

Communism is their lofty goal.

You see, it didn't work in the former Soviet Union because the right people weren't in charge.

This time they'll do Communism right because the REALLY smart people are in charge.

and of course taxing the crap out of people, fining them, and making regulations on businesses so expensive that they fail will result in rich victims- Brilliant!

There are fewer people in extreme poverty now than at any time in the history of man.

There are fewer pandemics, natural famines (All famines these days are caused by governments and used as a weapon by them.), lower infant mortality rates and less real suffering due to carbon based fuels and more democratic governments.

The entire premise is a proven lie by simply looking at the last 100 years of human history, particularly since Reagan brought down the Soviet Union without firing a single bullet.
