Silly: "Climate change most significant public health issue of our time" Biden's Climate Advisor McCarthy Heart disease kills 33% and cancer 26% of all Americans Heat kills 0.3% and declining. Cold 6.4% and increasing Yes, problem. No, 0.3% not biggest challenge refs belowpic.twitter.com/C7rrLZJEI0
Moreover, most heat deaths are rather easy to tackle (which is why they are declining), bc only affect people for a few days Cold deaths much worse, because they require months of good heating (why they increase) Unfortunately newest data to 2006 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0160412017310346 …pic.twitter.com/flqmoXSvJ2
Heat deaths have declined precipitously in the US since 1960s, much of it because of widespread availability of air conditioning https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.1086/684582 … https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33003149/ pic.twitter.com/Mi1qJcgh3G
Across world, heat deaths typically (&surprisingly) small compared to cold deaths. Here India: Each year, 584,300 die from moderate cold. 47,800 die from extreme cold. Yet, almost all stories on India's extreme weather is extreme heat (25,100/yr) https://twitter.com/BjornLomborg/status/1136762380006952960 …pic.twitter.com/RhuI72VCkW

Climate scares based on breathless climate reporting can lead to bad decisions Climate change a real problem, but we must be careful not — in panic — spending so many resources, the cure is costlier than the affliction Read my free peer-reviewed article:https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0040162520304157 …
Scared witless has real impacts Half the world now believe climate change will make humanity go extinct Reality? UN expects average person in 2100 to be 450% richer. Climate will make that 434%.

I do agree that there’s a lot of alarmism surrounding climate change but why only focus on heat & cold deaths? What about floods, droughts, air pollution, infectious diseases/viruses, & change in distribution of those infectious diseases that are encouraged by climate change?
How dose climate change increase air pollution?
Please don't let facts get in the way of the narrative ..
This is bullshit, to put it mildly. Yes cancer and heart disease kills so many - but that’s why there are limitless amounts being spent on these diseases to find mitigation and possibly cures. So the same for climate - spend the $ to try to combat a known killer.
