NPR Pushes False Link Between Climate Change and Disease

National Public Radio (NPR) followed its sister organization Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) this week in pushing false climate claims.

Among the most egregious lies told in NPR’s story, “Everything Is Unprecedented. Welcome To Your Hotter Earth,” was linking the seasonal outbreak of mosquito-borne tropical diseases to climate change.

However, as detailed in Chapter Four of Climate Change Reconsidered II: Fossil Fuels, the vast body of scientific literature refutes NPR’s claim that climate change is likely to exacerbate the spread of mosquito-borne diseases.

NPR:
You can be reasonably sure that 50% of the time, they're lying.
You can be confident that 25% of the time, they're distorting the facts.
And as for the remaining 25% -- one can't be sure of anything.
