By 2050 more people will die from excessive heat than from auto accidents in parts of the U.S.

So where exactly is ground zero for climate change you may ask? Florida, Texas and Arizona.

If the estimates are high, maybe only 80 deaths per hundred thousand. If they are low, perhaps as many as 150 per hundred thousand. Currently there are ten deaths per hundred thousand from traffic accidents in the U.S. One alarming number...Coral Gables Florida...97% of real properties will experience flood damage by 2050. Let's not even mention Houston which regularly floods now even before major onset of global climate change. By then the wet-bulb temps will be so bad in Houston that you won't be able to work outside for more than a few hours at a time. Maricopa County Arizona is done...finito.

Yet people are still moving to these three states in large numbers to find work.

1. Climate change and gun deaths are the new normal.

2. Just like in the disaster movies

Not enough heeded the warnings until it was too late.

3. It's cold up north this weekend

so that proves climate change is a liberal hoax

Even when Texas lost power this winter, GOP idiots were saying they could sure use some global warming.

4. This makes sense: Climate is warming, cars are getting safer, ...

... the population is aging.

By 2050, self-driving cars will be safer than people-driven cars. Hey Siri, take me to the Bingo hall, then find a place to park yourself.

Alas, flying cars will still be fiction.
