The article is not available. I am not going to pay $59 to read it. I don't know if you actually read the article or only the abstract. If you haven't read it, you shouldn't believe it, let alone post it here. There is no explanation how they determined 37% of the heat related deaths is attributed to global warming. This is the key point, isn't it?
They do provide a link to their data.....simulation is how they did it.
It's a model of what might happen.
Could not find any actual deaths and asked Elliott to provide a link to that......
The authors said their methods -- if extended worldwide -- would add up to more than 100,000 heat-related deaths per year laid squarely at the feet of manmade climate change.
That number could be an underestimate because two of the regions for which data was largely missing -- south Asia and central Africa -- are known to be especially vulnerable to extreme heat deaths.
The 100,000 figure is consistent with a recent analysis from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluations (IHME), published in The Lancet.
Th IHME calculated just over 300,000 heat-related deaths worldwide from all causes in 2019. If just over a third of those deaths are due to climate change, as Gasparrini's team reported, the global total would indeed be more than 100,000.

...right at 2,000,000 people die every year from cold......not heat

That's just an article. No sources. I want to see the data for the cities and the deaths.
I can't find that...just the simulation stuff.
From Elliott's link:
"..we use empirical data from 732 locations in 43 countries to estimate the mortality burdens.."
See, it's not actual but estimated. And nowhere did they provide the source for those 732 locations in 43 countries.
Humans are but a blip in the history of the earth itself. We will have our time and then we'll be gone and something else will take our place.
The earth is 4.5 billion years old.
Humans are only 2.8 million years old.
There is some common sense to the science that the left has turned into lunacy (like everything else they get involved with)
It took tiny one cell creatures on the surfaces of the oceans eons to process the carbon heavy, toxic atmosphere of the Earth and make it breathable for humans and other mammals. They absorbed the toxicity and secreted oxygen. When they died they settled to the oceans floor and created these huge deposits of oil.
For the last 150 years humans have been busy bringing this oil to the surface and turning back into toxic gasses and carbon in the air. That a simple fact and to think it’s not affecting things is crazy.
But again, how badly are we affecting things?
