Global warming may save lives

The BBC must have hated to report thus, that "The risk of a fatal heatwave in the UK within five years is high, but overall global warming may mean fewer deaths due to temperature, a report says.
A seriously hot summer between now and 2012 could claim more than 6,000 lives, the Department of Health report claims.

But it also stresses that milder winters mean deaths during this time of year - which far outstrip heat-related mortality - will continue to decline...

While summers in the UK became warmer in the period 1971 - 2003, there was no change in heat-related deaths, while annual cold-related mortality fell by 3% as winters became milder - so overall fewer people died as a result of extreme temperatures."



Od course we intelligent people know that the Earth is not getting warmer and that Man Made Climate Change is one of the biggest cons ever perpetrated on the world.
