WTF does asthma have to do with global warming? These envirotards conflate so many different issues nobody has any idea which issues are which. That's probably intentional.

CO
2 causes asthma? Who knew?
All seriousness aside, some idiots reason it out this way: high carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere cause plants and trees to emit higher levels of pollen (might be because CO2 is good for plants and trees), and in turn the pollen causes asthma.
Sheesh.
Does pollen CAUSE asthma, or just trigger asthma symptoms? Answer: pollen triggers asthma symptoms. (But indoor air does a better job of triggering asthma symptoms).

So because of higher energy cost, air conditioning will be run less often.
Air conditioning is an effective method of removing airborn pollen. Airborn pollen can trigger asthma attacks.
More liberal unintended consequences.
Dean is profoundly stupid.
