"Carbon dioxide emissions linked to mortality"

See the article and comments here.

Update: Here is a related Bloomberg article, with headline "Increased Carbon Dioxide in Atmosphere Will Kill More People".

I would point out this paragraph from a Discover magazine article:

For Europe as a whole, about 200,000 people die from excess heat each year. However, about 1.5 million Europeans die annually from excess cold. That is more than seven times the total number of heat deaths. Just in the past decade, Europe has lost about 15 million people to the cold, more than 400 times the iconic heat deaths from 2003. That we so easily neglect these deaths and so easily embrace those caused by global warming tells us of a breakdown in our sense of proportion.
