Kick up your recliner chairs because you’re not going to believe this one! TIME magazine is out with a new report prophesying that climate change threatens to make us all lazy slobs!
“Scientists Warn of Health Risks As Climate Change Reduces Physical Activity,” read the knee-slapper headline from TIME reporter Simmone Shah. Shah waved around a new wacky study published in Lancet Global Health to foam at the mouth over how “rising global temperatures due to climate change could lead millions of people to be less physically active” and will supposedly lead to an increase of half a million deaths by 2050.
Yes, they’re actually projecting this nonsense out 24 years into the future, giving the misleading implication that humanity writ large is completely incapable of adaptation. But as Hoover Institution Visiting Fellow Bjorn Lomborg argued in November 2022, “Around the world, far more people die each year from cold than heat.” And that’s according to — get this — another report by The Lancet that Lomborg cited at the time. So which is it?

“Global Warming! Global Warming!”
“Hey, I notice that temperatures aren’t actually going up, and the seas are not rising.”
“Climate Change! Climate Change!”
“What’s so bad about Climate Change?”
“The Warming!!!!!!!”
Is this meant to accept that AOC was wrong about only 5 years left?
climate change is a communist operation almost successful as the racism scam
it’s all
bs andthe money flows
But when I was a kid it was the next Ice age is coming! Where is that talk?
Hold my beer!
TIME: Not enough readers. We better write more inflammatory articles to pull them in.
Here in the Seattle area, we’ve had a cool, wet Spring. THAT might make us lazy slobs because who wants to go jogging in weather like this? Come to think of it, the great marathon runner Abebe Bekila came from Ethiopia, and the hot climate didn’t seem to hold him back.
And here we are, 24 degrees above average (Silicon Valley)!
My mistake. I saw the headline ‘Too Hot To Exercise?”
I thought it was about one of the Kardashians.
They don’t like sweating to the oldies?
Airhead warming fanatics posting their brain farts and calling it news.
Well, here in south central Texas, where we have about the same temperature as the Mojave with about the same humidity as south Louisiana in the summer, unless someone is in really good condition to begin with, they ought to limit their outdoor exercise in the summer. Heat strokes kill, too.
MAKE us lazy? That train done left the station.
That explains my need for increased afternoon naps.
BS i see people jogging outside all the time in tropical climates we visit where the temps are steadily above 100 degrees f. You’re body acclamates to the heat. Just dress appropriately, drink the right amount of fluids, and use common sense. And don’t try to be superman. You’ll be ok.
Crazy people came to Wichita Falls every year to do the “Hotter Than Hell Hundred”
Only 4.85 years left. Hit the stair master.
In the summer, it is hot in AZ.
Very few AZ residents are fat or lazy.
Visit MN and you will see lots of fat and lazy.
And for a few cold ones.
