Gore unhinged: we're facing a disaster comparable to (but greater than) the two world wars

Excerpt from this article:

[Gore] thought that when people (and the media) started "joining the dots" between recent catastrophes - fires in California, Greece, floods in Africa and so on - humankind would realise that we were facing a disaster comparable to (but greater than) the two world wars.

About World War I:

Total casualties were estimated at 10 million dead, 21 million wounded, and 7.7 million missing or imprisoned.

About World War II:

The commitment of resources and the destruction brought about by the Second World War far exceeded anything seen before or since as did the scope and magnitude of the war itself. The human toll of the Second World War was frightful. As many as 50 million military personnel and civilians were killed, some 14 million in the Soviet Union alone.
