Worried about world getting hot? Excess cold is everywhere the top killer, not excess heat.

 This chart is from The Lancet showing excess cold events are far more dangerous than excess heat events over time.     Oddly, this same publication now predicts millions of deaths from warming, overlooking its own information.  Wattsupwiththat.com

This is the perfect moment to slip in one of my favorite poems, crafted with such skill by Robert Frost.
Hatred towards the people I admire seems ascendent today.

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
