About the Record Cold ...

Record cold weather now hitting mid-America is causing some very chilly individuals to rethink climate change. Authors Tom Harris and Dr. Tim Ball write the following at PJ Media.

A colder world is a much greater threat than a warmer one. While governments plan for warming, all the indications are that the world is cooling. And, contrary to the proclamations of climate activists, every single year more people die from the cold than from the heat.

A study in British medical journal The Lancet reached the following conclusion:

Cold weather kills 20 times as many people as hot weather, according to an international study analyzing over 74 million deaths in 384 locations across 13 countries.

Cold weather is what you’d expect in a time like the present; there’s a “quiet sun” with little sunspot activity. Fortunately for us, it is easier to create heat than cold. Hat tip to Stephen Green guest blogging at Instapundit for the link.
