Cold Temperatures Cause More Deaths Than Heat


Despite scary global warming headlines, winter poses greatest threat to our lives.

he summer of 2023 was a scorcher in much of the U.S., but not the record breaker that the global warming lobby


would like you to believe. As temperatures soared above 90


and 100 degrees in late July, some sci- entists were warning that man-made carbon emissions were heating the


planet to unsustainable levels which, among other things, would lead to more Americans dying from the heat. But a closer examination of data


shows that this summer, while undeni- ably hot, had nowhere near the tem- perature extremes of previous years. The six hottest July 19ths in the U.S. occurred in 1934, 1932, 1936, 1930, 1926, and 1901 — when almost half of the U.S.

was over 95 F. And when it comes to temperature variations, heat is not the biggest threat to our lives. It’s the cold. Doctors for Disaster Preparedness, a


nonprofi t group dedicated to preparing for threats, notes that a new European study published in the British medical journal The Lancet determined that cold-related deaths in Europe account for 10 times the number of deaths due to heat. The group issued a stark warning


in a newsletter to its members: “Pay attention to the other side of the graph: deaths from cold. Winter is coming!” A CO2 Coalition newsletter also


pointed out that “it is very well doc- umented that many more people die from cold than from heat.” The nonpartisan foundation, which


works to educate people on the impor- tance of carbon dioxide, cited several studies that found cold weather kills at a far more signifi cant rate than heat. One study in the U.K. and Australia


found that cold-related deaths in these countries had a mortality rate that was more than 15 times higher than fatali- ties due to heat. Another study showed that some cold weather deaths out- paced heat deaths by 20 times. CO2 Coalition determined that

“warmer weather would likely save mil- lions of lives.” While the establishment media rou-


tinely covers deaths caused by heat waves, cold deaths often go underre- ported. A recent CNN article highlighted


how nearly 62,000 Europeans died from heat-related causes between May 30 and Sept. 4, 2022 — a new record, according to a study published in the journal Nature Medicine. The number of heat-related deaths


in the U.S. is far less than the deaths in Europe. According to data from the
