Biden’s ‘Climate Crisis’ Rhetoric Isn’t Supported By Real-World Data
In his State of the Union address last week, President Joe Biden ditched the term “climate change.”
Apparently, the phrase isn’t scary enough. Instead, as the New York Times noted, Biden employed a different alliterative phrase: climate crisis.
That the Earth’s climate is changing and human activity influences these changes to some degree or another is something that few today deny. But the claim that these changes represent a crisis to humanity deserves scrutiny. [emphasis, links added]
It’s an undisputed fact that climate-related deaths have plummeted over the last century.
The International Disaster Database is a dataset comprised of more than 26,000 mass disasters since 1900, and it is maintained by the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters at the University of Louvain in Brussels.
It shows climate-related deaths have fallen 99.5% since 1920.
