In the earlier part of the century, before the advent of air conditioning, thousands died from heat strokes while others suffered from other heat-related illnesses. Ironically, higher energy prices from greenhouse gas regulation will make it more difficult to protect Americans from the summer heat. While proponents of the global warming theory have good intentions, they have given little thought to the unintended consequences of their actions. Fortunately, time is on the side of science. Climatologists won't have any real answers about climate change for decades.
Prudence dictates keeping a cool head until all the evidence is in.
