Reuters reports that "scientists" (my scare quotes, not theirs) are claiming that global warming is killing tens of thousands of people each year.

About 160,000 people die every year from side-effects of global warming ranging from malaria to malnutrition and the numbers could almost double by 2020, a group of scientists said on Tuesday.

They also point out that third world nations like France are impacted the most. France lost 15,000 people due to this summer's heat wave.

I wonder how many years will the enviro-weenies be spewing this bogus statistic while they make the big grab for our freedoms?

In other Scaring Ted Turner related news, CNN reports that Orangutans will all die out in 20 years. Of course since we're all dead in 50 years, what's the point in saving them. I've already gone 30 years without owning an orangutan, I could easily go 30 more.
