WHAT GLOBAL WARMING HAS WROUGHT….THEY LEFT OUT BEDBUGS!!

“Maybe because its so close to Christmas, the folks at the Huffington Post ran an article with a long list of things caused by global warming; illness and death from heart disease, diabetes, stroke, respiratory disease and even accidents, homicide, suicide,water -borne disease outbreaks,heavier, wetter snowstorms treacherous for travel and ambulation, Lyme disease, swarms of allergy-inducing, stinging insects, along with mosquitoes and devastating pine bark beetle infestations and the spread of forest and crop pests–all in one article. Damn these guys are good!”

You Won’t Believe What They Claim Global Warming Causes NOW

“When last we left the official crazy list of things Moonbats say global warming causes it contained  Incredible shrinking sheep, Invasion of jellyfish in the Mediterranean, Surge in fatal shark attack, Boy Scout tornado deaths, Severe acne, Global conflictBeer tasting different, Suicide of farmers in Australia, Bigger tuna fish,Longer days, Shorter daysCollapse of gingerbread houses in Sweden, Cow infertility, UFO sightings in the UK, Rise in insurance premiums, and Heroin addiction and a rise in bear attacks in Japan and Frigid Cold Winters in Great Britain, and Cancer just to name a few.”

In the past two decades, extreme heat events have killed tens of thousands around the globe, including populations here in the United States. Heatwaves are more frequent, of longer duration and more intense — and the lack of nighttime relief accompanying climate change makes today’s heat waves all the more lethal. Heat waves can cause illness and death from heart disease, diabetes, stroke, respiratory disease and even accidents, homicide and suicide.

At the same time, increased evaporation arising from warming seas is generating heavier downpours. (The world ocean has accumulated 22 times as much heat as has the atmosphere since the 1950s.) Across the continental U.S., two, four and six inch-a-day rains have increased 14, 20 and 27 percent, respectively, since 1970. This year, sudden, heavy downpours — some lasting several days — caused lethal flashfloods in Rhode Island, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Rains two inches a day and above are associated with water-borne disease outbreaks, when flooding overwhelms sewer systems and contaminates drinking water.

Increases in winter weather anomalies are emerging. Though winters have become shorter (two-to- three weeks shorter in the Northern Hemisphere, depending on latitude), they have grown more perilous. With warming, more winter precipitation is falling as rain rather than snow, increasing the chance of ice storms when temperatures do drop. Globally, westerly winds are also changing with climate change, affecting the shifts in weather fronts. And such conditions — along with heavier, wetter snowstorms — can be treacherous for travel and ambulation. (In Boston, we’ve dubbed this “orthopedic weather.”)

Meanwhile, warmer winters favor insect migration. In the past decade case reports of tick-borne Lyme disease rose ten-fold in Maine and northern counties are experiencing Lyme for the first time. In Alaska, especially warm winters have ushered in swarms of allergy-inducing, stinging insects, along with mosquitoes and devastating pine bark beetle infestations. The spread of forest and crop pests — requiring chemicals for control — pose additional long term health and environmental risks.

There’s more. Elevated carbon dioxide levels from burning fossil fuels boosts pollen production from ragweed and the pollen grains hitch rides on particulates from diesel and coal combustion, helping to deliver the allergens deep inside our lungs. Meanwhile, the allergy and asthma season has lengthened some two-to-three weeks with climate change, while, since 1980, asthma rates have more than doubled in the U.S.

I must admit after reading all this I was totally bummed, it was if the authors were trying to make everyone cranky for new years. But then I read a sentence that made me feel much better.

The American Medical Association is working actively to educate health care professionals about the projected rise in climate-related illness

OH! This was written by the AMA, the group who abandoned its membership to promote Obamacare. Now it makes sense.  Non of the charges above were actually tied into global warming and none of it proves that any possible warming is man-made. Just like the other Moonbat scare tactics,  these submitted by the AMA is long on spooky and short on evidence.  Possibly because there is no evidence.
