Study: Five Million People Were Killed By Global Warming in 2010
— Ace

Global warming, like pollution and smoke due to indoor fires.

Indeed, 1.4 million deaths are caused by outdoor air pollution, which is almost entirely unrelated to global warming. This air pollution, of course, is still predominantly caused by fossil fuels, but only because that is what we mostly use for fuel in the world. So, while the report is technically correct in saying that these 1.4 million deaths are caused by "the present carbon-intensive economy," these deaths are in no way caused by climate change. Rebranding air pollution, mostly from particulate pollution, as "carbon" appears both disingenuous and designed to confuse. It was clearly intended to convey the message that these deaths were somehow relevant for the global warming debate.

Moreover, 3.1 million deaths in 2010 were due to indoor smoke, which in no way is caused by global warming and has little or nothing to do with fossil fuels. According to the World Health Organization, indoor air pollution is due to cooking and heating with biomass fuels (agricultural residues, dung, straw, wood) or coal products, and biomass, which is entirely unrelated to fossil fuels, constitutes more than 85 percent of the total. So, while the study lumps all these deaths together as resulting from the use of carbon-based fuels, it is only true in the most exaggerated meaning of that word, in that all biomass contains carbon.

The bottom line: When the study reports that 4.975 million people die in 2010 from the "combined climate-carbon crisis", the reality is that 4.575 million have not been caused by global warming.

And he's got a problem with the 0.4 million left over, too.

But this headline has gone out to all the liberal media today, including Businessweek. Global warming, it is claimed, will kill 100 million people by 2030.

Just nonsense and mummery, like the Prophets of Doom of old.

We seem to have become a Post-Enlightment culture. Mysticism and prophecy are all the rage again, as they once were.

Smoke Inhalation Counts As A Global Warming Death? Alex seizes upon this to suggest Susan Rice's next talking point:

bviously Ambassador Steven's death due to indoor smoke inhilation is more evidence that we must redouble our efforts to fight global climate change.

21 >>>indoor fire? I think they mean like a coal-burning stove in your house. When you add up things like actual fires plus asphyxiation deaths (always a danger with indoor fires) plus *premature deaths due to breathing smoky air all your life,* then they're saying that's x million deaths. So yeah, they're reaching for whatever they can reach. In any event, it's not "global warming." It's the poor heating their homes as they long have. And to the extent they die from such things prematurely, it's not something new that started in 1980.

38 What the "study" does is clearly intentional deception: They push the Global Warming headline, but then the deaths they include are due, they say, to "our carbon-intensive" lifestyle. Thus, they're changing the terms of debate in for deceptive purposes; they hook people with "Global Warming," but then they greatly expand this to include any death which has some sort of attenuated carbon cause. Since everything organic contains carbon, you can just add "murder" and "war" into this stat, if you like.

43 Global Waring is, and always has been, a scam to fraudulently squeeze money out of Western tax payers.

When I first heard of this before the first minute of research was done by me I looked at the proposed solution.  You can always tell what the "real" problem is by the proposed solution. In this case it was more government control or more taxes or both.  So I determined that the real problem was the US had too much industry and that the citizens in this country who paid taxes did not pay enough.


In other words Obama material. So now even though Congress said no to this BS Obama is implementing it through Pharaoh said anyway.

I think the slum lord got off with a small fine--he said he couldn't afford to turn on the heat--yet in the same time frame he made a $1,000 campaign contribution to Obama. I think Mickey Kaus had the story IIRC

This is the sort of story that doesn't pass what I would call my super-duper grade-school arithmetic/smell test.   To wit:

1.  There are roughly 7 billion people in the world.

2.  The average world age expectancy is roughly 70.

3.  That means, and again this is rough, that roughly 100 million people die in the world every year of something -- violence, car crashes, heart disease, cancer, old age, etc.

4.  This story is telling us that something like 5% of world deaths are caused by global warming/carbon pollution.  

I just don't buy it.   That's obviously a grossly exaggerated statistic, and anyone with fifth grade math skills could see it in an instant.

And, of course, even if it were true, if we all of a sudden could or would decide to simply do away with using carbon fuels, you'd have to account for the millions who would die of starvation, war, societal breakdown, etc.  

Utopians never understand that there are tradeoffs on the road to nirvana.

95 Of course the global warming enthusiasts never mention that some of the worst atmosphere-related health problems are caused by ground-level ozone, which used to be kept in check by the CFCs they got banned (and which, being so heavy, had absolutely zero effect on upper-level ozone they were trying to "protect").

Although I have to admit that these scientifically ignorant morons make me even more sick than ozone does (after all, the ozone doesn't have the free will to intentionally cause asthma, free radicals, and premature aging).

96 Meanwhile, on the stump today ::: “This is deadly earnest, man. This is deadly earnest,” the vice president said. “How they can justify, how they can justify raising taxes on the middle class that has been buried the last four years? How in lord's name can they justify raising their taxes with these tax cuts.” Right and perhaps of importance here, he and his absentee boss have been in charge so to speak, whilst "the middle class has been buried that past four years". A total fucking idiot!

Many of them could cook with nice clean electricity or natural gas, but the fucking eco-fascists throw tantrums every time a Third World country wants to build a power plant or any country wants to get natural gas.

Let's just not talk about all the people in third world shitholes who die of malaria and other insect-borne diseases who would have survived if they had some fucking DDT. Because DDT is bad.

Not just DDT, but people are bad.  Billions of people have to die so stupid rich white proggs can feel good about "saving teh planet" (for whom?).  Poor brown people are easier to kill en masse than rich white progg people...

122 How many people did the Medieval Warm Period murder?

New evidence suggests that the Crusades- which involved the invasion of peaceful Muslim lands and the indiscriminate murder of non-Christians- was largely motivated by climate change and the associated competition for resources.

Studies have suggested that the warming of the era has been attributed to deforestation and livestock domestication that began in earnest during the Medieval period.

Solar activity...increases in volcanic activity...there are several factors that cause periods of 'global warming', here on earth.

All of which are far more powerful than whatever we puny humans are doing.

 

THIS.   Sometimes the stupidity of other people amazes me (I know -- trust me, I'm getting better).    When I mention this to     these idiots,   I almost always get that blinking, glassy look of, "Okaaay... I don't really understand what you're talking   about,    so I'm not going to say anything.   I'm pretty sure I'm right    and you're wrong,    but I don't have any facts to back that up so I'll just pretend I know what you're saying."

 

I mean, how often does someone have to make a movie about     prehistoric times       with     jungles where we   now    have temperate    forests,.     oceans where now there's desert,          and great ice sheets where  we now have arable land?      Just how often do you have to point at a picture of a fucking Mastodon and say,   "There's a reason a big, shaggy elephants        didn't survive     to the modern era."     Just how often to you have to point out that     the word "AGE" in "ICE AGE" means that it was a period of time     with a beginning and an end    and    that it happened WITHOUT humans     having      anything to do with it?

 

I mean, WTF!

128 Yes, Francis, Mormonism came from Freemasonry. It is a verfiable fact. They think they're going to become independent Gods after life, an acute sign of a Satanic ideology that places Man above God. They also think the Constitution is a divinely inspired document. Who wrote the Constitution? Freemasons. Obviously it's carefully compartmentalized and only a handful at the top are given hints of the "truth". Romney is probably told something like "God has America on a mission to spread unlimited individual freedom". So he has to be a shill for homosexuality and other degeneracy.

Flag-burning will have a waiver, per SCOAMF executive order.

Posted by: IllTemperedCur at October 02, 2012 10:42 AM (TIIx5)

164 CHICAGO - The federal government has agreed to buy the closed Thomson Correctional Center in western Illinois for $165 million after the sale was held up for three years, state leaders announced Tuesday.

Many Illinois leaders — including U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin and Gov. Pat Quinn who spoke to The Associated Press ahead of a news conference to announce the sale — supported the purchase because they said it would bring up to 1,100 jobs to Illinois. Federal officials have said it would help alleviate prison overcrowding.

"It means a prison that has been sitting here empty will be used again and create a lot of opportunity for working families in the areas," Durbin said.

The sale of the facility has been stalled for years. Most recently, Virginia Republican U.S. Rep. Frank Wolf, who heads a key House subcommittee overseeing the federal Bureau of Prisons, objected to the purchase because he believed terrorism suspects would be housed there. The Obama administration, which supports the sale, has vowed that won't happen and federal law now prohibits any transfers from Guantanamo Bay to Thomson.

From January 1, 2012 through today, 1430 EST, more than 31 million abortions have been performed worldwide...I guess they've been spared a really horrible death caused by global warming.

Polar bear farts cause global warming. Which kills the polar bears. Which stops them farting. Which cools the earth. Which allows the polar bears to thrive. Which makes them fart. Which warms the globe. Which kills the polar bears.

185 Is porn made from carbon?

There is evidence that the Solutrean culture was greatly admired by the Neanderthals for its rich diversity of erotic charcoal carvings.  The Neanderthals had to content themselves with smutty stick figures made from twigs.

"Working families" is still code for "public employee unions", right?

I'm not talking about pro-forma campaign stuff. yes fuck face, when he said there should be open season on American Ambassadors and Embassies. That we should never apologize for being attacked.

"When Obama came out and endorsed gay marriage, Romney gave one low-key speech against it and then gave up. That's his stance on traditional values."

206 Antarctic Ice actually hit all-time records (in the satellite record) over this summer.

The part that's hilarious is the morons finishing that sentence "Just as the models predicted." (Some models predict polar amplification. Some predict polar cooling. None of them predict North Pole Amplification -and- South Pole cooling.)

What we don't realize is that the    "scientists"    who conducted this study and    published the results are ACTUALLY working for the     American energy     fossil fuel    lobby.    This is all an elaborate scheme to undermine the work of environmentalists by making them look     like silly frauds.
