Climate Change May Cause 26,000 More U.S. Suicides by 2050
The Atlantic ^ | July 2018 | Robinson Meyer

Posted on 11/25/2018 6:58:34 AM PST by Baynative

Now, scientists have identified one more way that climate shapes suicide—and, worryingly, they have projected that it will only become more pronounced as suicide rates rise in a rapidly warming world.

The finding has anxious implications for a world whose climate is rapidly changing. The authors project that roughly 14,000 people—and as many as 26,000—could die by suicide in the United States by 2050 if humanity does not reduce its emissions of greenhouse-gas pollution.

If that actually happens they’ll all be Kool-Aid drinking, AGW believing gore-bots. I see no downside to this.

It’s the biggest scam of the century and the left constantly pushes it as if a 20 gigaton meteorite is about to slam into the earth killing everything in existence. I posted one article the other day where the left was talking about shooting chemicals into the atmosphere to block the sun out and cool down the earth. These people are utterly insane. We better make damn damn sure they NEVER take all branches of government because I would not doubt it for a second that they would try something as suicidal as that. Their priorities are utterly nuts. We have a huge problem at the border, gangs, drugs pouring over killing 65,000 people a year, we got corruption up the wazoo in Washington where day and night enemies of the people are doing everything they can to stop a President from improving the country, and these lunatics are fanatical over something that is completely unproven when it comes to being man made.

"... the left was talking about shooting chemicals into the atmosphere to block the sun out and cool down the earth."

When I was in college they wanted to cover the ice caps and glaciers with soot and coal ash to absorb heat and promote production of C02 so we wouldn't run out of crops.

"If", "could", "try", "as many as". Grrrr. These highfalutin' scientific terms remind my of why I hated science in high school.

That, and the fact that every time I tried to take a nap, Mr. Hoyt would call on me.

Let’s call it by a name that all the lib-tards can rally behind:

Auto Post-Partum Abortiom

They’ll be standing in line to ‘kill off’ climate change.

And I may be still alive by then (100+), if my hopes are as “correct” as is the alarmists “science”. /sarc

By 2050 32,000,000 will have died from CHOICE if we do not stop abortion on demand in this country.

These numbers were extrapolated from the many suicide letters left behind by so many anguished folks.

Inconvenient Science: NASA data show that global temperatures dropped sharply over the past two years. Not that you’d know it, since that wasn’t deemed news. Does that make NASA a global warming denier?

Writing in Real Clear Markets, Aaron Brown looked at the official NASA global temperature data and noticed something surprising. From February 2016 to February 2018, “global average temperatures dropped by 0.56 degrees Celsius.” That, he notes, is the biggest two-year drop in the past century.
