ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!
🤣😅😂🤣😅🤣😂😅
Your study is laughably flawed!!
They studied only 13 (out of 195) countries while conveniently ignoring all the countries in Africa and the Middle East which are near the Equator:
"We collected data for 384 locations in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, UK, and USA."
Did Big Oil fund your dopey "study"?
Unlike you, this "adolescent" can read.

those are fair points.
though i don't know where you're getting 13 countries.
"The latest dataset covers 750 locations in 43 countries or territories (two countries in Northern America, 13 in Latin America and the Caribbean, 17 in Europe, nine in Asia, one in Africa, and one in Oceania; appendix p 4). Figure 1 shows the 750 locations with their average daily mean temperatures during the data collection periods. A detailed description of the data by continent and country is provided in the appendix (pp 2, 4). "
maybe you made a typo.
if you could learn to treat people like human beings, you might actually win people over to your side sometimes, lol.
it is true that there isn't a lot of data from africa/middle east.

Once again, my feeble-minded MC compatriot, the study is flawed since its data is overwhelmingly from cold areas while omitting Africa and the Middle East. One token African country in an attempt to legitimize an obviously flawed and biased study is laughable. I need you to become smarter since society is harmed by its weakest link. Stop being the weakest link!
Your study is as useless as your reading and reasoning skills.
you:
"if you could learn to treat people like human beings, you might actually win people over to your side sometimes, lol."
you:
"keelai is so pissy & angry & disrespectful i always figured it had to be some rage-filled adolescent dork."
Take your own advice, Ms. addlebrain, weakest link, MC compatriot. Stop being so self-unaware.

boy are you ever fun to talk to. it's nice to see you haven't changed.
if you really are a 50+ yr old woman, i plead with you to touch grass or pet a dog or something.
anyway, if anyone actually takes a look at the numbers that they do have from northern & subsaharan africa & asia & latin america, you'll see that in each region cold related deaths are much, much higher than heat deaths.
i sure wish there was more data from the middle east & africa, but i think it's safe to say the reason it's spotty is because of lack of reliable reporting from those regions. i don't know that, but that's a pretty reasonable assumption.
you can find the breakdowns on page 4 of the pdf in the study.
northern africa:
cold related deaths: 118265
heat related deaths : 7181
sub-saharan africa:
cold related deaths: 1070221
heat related deaths: 18368
those are very stark differences.

if these are not accurate or deceptive, then the lancet should retract the study.
but i don't think it's implausible that the poor populations of africa & asia & the me would be much more at risk from cold exposure than heat.
& whatever dangers & destruction a warming earth poses, it may be in the short to mid-term, it may actually result in lower deaths from extreme temperatures in either direction.
it may be that in 50+ years that will flip & the danger in hot regions will outstrip the cold. that may be baked in with the carbon already there. the best thing to do is to encourage economic expansion so those regions will have the resources to provide the kinds of things that prevent people in rich regions from facing temperature risk.

can you point me to any studies that show that the heat deaths from climate change will increase more than any offset from reduction in cold related deaths?

Only you could whine about a study not being representative of the entire earth and in your very next post try to back up your claims by pointing to deaths in the Arabian desert, one of the most brutally hot locations on the planet.
LOL!
