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?

They’ve cried wolf - “12 years til the end of the world” - for decades.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) _ A senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000.

Yeah, but the dirty little secret is that 10 times that many would die with a COOLING of 1.5 deg Centigrade. Climate is always changing, with or without mankind on the planet, be happy it is headed in the correct direction!
