Bloomberg ran an article from a Science denier who without proof claims the world is ending. Here’s what the loon left out.
What Ainger fails to mention, besides the fact that it is impossible to attribute specific weather events to “climate change,” is that weather-related deaths have been decreasing steadily over the last hundred years.
“Activists constantly talk about the existential threat climate change poses and the deaths natural disasters inflict — but they never quite manage to total up these deaths,” climate expert Bjorn Lomborg wrote last November.
The truth is, he declared, people “are safer from climate-related disasters than ever before.”
The year 2021 saw a new record low number of weather-related deaths, the culmination of years of falling numbers.
“Fewer and fewer people die from climate-related natural disasters,” Lomborg wrote in January, and “despite breathless climate reporting, almost 99% fewer people” died in 2021 than a hundred years ago.
A total of 6,134 died in weather-related events in 2021, which represents a reduction of 98.7 percent since the 1920s, Lomborg noted.
Nuff Said.
