Global warming deaths

A new study by Mark Jacobson at Stanford attributes 20,000 worldwide human deaths/year/°C of greenhouse gas warming.

Don't expect anyone to care.

Would we (collectively) care even if this number were 100 times bigger? I seriously doubt it. We might start to pay attention at 20M/yr. Maybe.

    This is B.S. propoganda from the Left Wing. Check the studies...there is not a direct correlation between malaria and global warming. Deaths will increase every year due to the increase of population no matter what the cause.

    I'm sure scientists are smart enough to realize that malaria deaths will increase if, all other things being equal, the population does, and factor this into their conclusions. It sounds to me like the very first thing any epidemiologist would do.
