In the past decade — extreme weather deaths outnumbered war casualties

Okay, first off: the “weather” is not the “climate.”  [So how many people were killed by "climate"?]
...
Our climate is changing. And yes, weather is also something which warrants worry: In the last ten years, there have been more Americans who died from extreme weather than U.S. soldiers who died in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars combined. According to the National Weather Service, during the last decade 5,754 people have died due to weather events such as extreme temperatures, flooding and hurricanes. Compare that death toll with the 5,521 soldiers killed in the two wars we’ve waged since 2001.

Bay area could see more cases of mosquito-borne diseases

The cold winter, especially in North Florida, may be responsible for the southern shift of the virus, Day said.

NC Media Watch: Mother Natures is turning down the global thermostat

Joe Bastardi writing on his European Blog:

"Think the markets are in the tank? Wait till you global temperature watchers get a load of what is coming."

Using NOAA own data Joe points to some significant cooling. In the graphic below the blue represents cold and the tannish to orange colors warm... "

Feedbacks, feedbacks, feedbacks: A new hole in the IPCC climate models

The whole Warmist scare is based on feedbacks that supposedly will AMPLIFY the trivial warming we saw in the 20th century. The feedbacks proposed are little better than guesswork and are in any case just a cherrypick of possible feedbacks. The research below looks at an unmentioned feedback: A vegetation-climate feedback. And guess what? Including that feedback REDUCES the predicted temperature rise

Heatwave In Philadelphia | Watts Up With That?

July, 2010 has been very hot in Philadelphia so far. Just as hot as it was 180 years ago – during the Little Ice Age when CO2 levels were 280 ppm.
