Global Cooling: Amazing pictures of countries joining Britain in the big freeze

Editor,
While many so-called scientists try to make the unsuspecting public think that global warming is real and a threat to human life, some new data is coming out to the contrary.
freerepublic.com reports British scientists as saying global warming could end up saving thousands of lives. Although global warming could end up causing about 6,000 deaths, that is a dramatic decrease from the average of 20,000 deaths that the cold winters in Great Britain cause. The British government has reported that the warmer weather has already resulted in a 3 percent decline in the mortality rate. Discovery Magazine has a similar article called "Global Warming, The Great Life Saver."
To further clarify, Thomas Moore of Stanford University conducted a study in the 1980s, which he updated in 1996, that suggests that a 2.5 degree Celsius increase in temperature would lower deaths in the U.S. alone by 40,000. The study also mentions that medical costs will be reduced by $20 billion annually.
To be fair and accurate, I looked up "An Inconvenient Truth" on the Internet to see what it had reported. I must admit that I have never read the book. I tend to read things that have some truth to them. ClimateCrisis.net noted that global warming would cause 30,000 deaths per year. However, I could not find any information on how many deaths occur due to cold weather. Maybe it is because this number could suggest a decline rather than an increase in the number of deaths.
The Daily Lobo published an article Feb. 1 titled "Global warming: A heated issue," which states more inaccuracies about global warming and the devastation that it will cause. I wonder if people ever stop and think about the good that would come out of global warming. How great would it be for climates that are affected by cold and ice every year to be able to grow vegetation and crops? World hunger would be decreased because there would be more food for countries to export with growing national economies. That sounds like a win-win situation to me.
My parents live in the wonderful state of Iowa. While many educated people rambled on about the climate in New Mexico burning up Feb. 1, my parents were still trying to survive blizzards and temperatures at night. This week, while we had pleasant temperatures in the mid 50s, my parents were shoveling snow drifts every two or three hours because of blowing and drifting snow.
I guess the memo has not been delivered to the Midwest on how bad they are supposed to feel about the environment.

satire?
Good question.
Give us our globle warming! Fake it if you have to. We’ve died and stomped our feet and we’re entitled to it! WAAA!
OK, Here’s the new line: “CATASTROPHIC UNSUPPORTABLE HUMAN POLPULATION GROWTH/INFESTATATION SEEN AS LIKELY RESULT OF GW; WOMEN AND MINORITIES HARDEST HIT”.

My local leftist rag ran a story today about how our area’s record-setting cold and snow has been devastating for the local wildlife population. Save wild critters!!! Warm things up please.
As a matter of fact here is my tagline from January 26, 2003

Ping me if you find one I've missed.
Speculation on the reasons for the cold have not come up in the MSM here, but if it warms up a little next week we will hear all about global warming and why we are at fault.
