Wheres the Goebbels picture?

"I approved this statement."
This is ludicrous.
How many fewer deaths in the wintertime?
I ask because far more people die from cold than from heat.
I have learned that if a sentence includes soft words like could, might, should, possibly, etc..... it is NOT science. It is someone’s belief system.
Which 1600?

I get to choose!!!
1.5 degrees /Celsius! Hell we can afford to lose a lot more that 1,600. So we can afford to raise the temperature 15.0 degrees Celsius and lose 16,000 people. Still not a big deal. So again assuming linearity, we can go us to 150 degrees Celsius and that is only 160,000 per year.
even at that we are not even cutting into the annual immigration rate.
But 235000 who would have slipped on the ice or had heart attacks shoveling snow will not die.
Pretend problem: Climate Change could kill thousands.
Proposed solution: Socialism, which would kill millions.
Which ones? The ones that live in Chicago.
That’s one of them.
That’s still less than abortion.
Meanwhile opiates take a much greater toll.
The only hot weather I see is hot air coming out of these insane media outlets.
They are dumber than frozen rocks—so are their few remaining readers.
:-))
Very observant and very true.
Wouldn’t a little warmer winters save a bunch of homeless folks each year?
So current statistics say that about 2,000 Americans die each year from the weather — 1/3 from hot weather, 2/3 from cold weather.
So, whenever weather warms, two cold weather deaths are prevented for every one new hot weather death.
This is out of roughly 3 million deaths from all causes each year.
So we’re talking about one tenth of one percent of deaths, being reduced two to one by warmer weather.
And this is a problem why, exactly?
“Cooling by the same amount would kill more.”
Right, the statistics say two Americans die from cold weather for every one killed by hotter weather.
The total today is around 2,000 per year, or one tenth of one percent of all annual deaths.
The ratio today is two to one — two Americans die from cold weather for every one killed by hotter weather.
The total is about 2,000 per year, or less than one tenth of one percent of American deaths from from all causes.
