Y2Kyoto: Run For Yer Lives!


Roger Pielke Jr :
The figure above shows deaths from weather and climate disasters, from January to June, from 2000 to 2025. You can see that deaths are dominated by years with large events — 2008, Cyclone Nargis (~138,000 deaths, Indian Ocean); 2010, heat wave (~56,000 deaths, Russia); 2022, heat wave (>50,000 deaths, Europe).5 The little red bar on the far right of the bar graph is 2025.

  1. The climate change charlatans will tell you that 8,000 people die in the US every year due to climate change. I’m not making that up. What they don’t clarify is that their statistics include all heart attacks and various associated medical conditions that are exacerbated by warm weather (IOW…Summer). It’s very much the same approach they used to determine deaths by COVID-19. You could get into a motorcycle accident with an 18 wheeler, but if your remains tested positive for COVID, then that was a COVID related death.

  2. Each year in January it’s the same thing. “Previous year” was the hottest on record!
    Environment and Tossing Virgins into Volcanoes Canada has a news release template where only the year is changed.

  3. But, but, but … Trump has fired all the FEMA employees!! And half the NWS employees who draw dozens of those guesstimated hurricane tracks!! Ohhhhhhhhhh mommmaaaaaaaa … those chil’ren in TX wouldn’t have died if not for Trump’s cuts to the Federal “safety” agencies.

  4. 100 years ago when the Yangtze flooded, they measured casualties in the millions. We seem to have fixed problems with the climate before it stared changing. 1931 – 3.7 million dead, 40 million homeless.

  5. ah. climate related ergo no mention of the 2004 SE asian tsunami
    l fault the edjukayshun CYSTem for the high death toll.
    the young teen girl knows the horror over the horizon and naturally is met with
    scepticism.
    herrrroooo ardurts what is consistent? extremely rare sudden receding water level, what? the ocean sprang a leak? STOP AND THINK.
    a proper edjukayshun cystem would put the knowledge in their heads to be recognized for what it is.
    but no no no lets go TOWARDS the ‘new shoreline’ and carry on !!! we are sheep !!!! dumb and dumber on a global scale !!!!

    tq for your attention to this matter. lol
