Moscow has worst heatwave since records began
Muscovites are dying from extreme heat and smoke faster than their bodies can be stored, cremated or buried
Morgues are overflowing and one crematorium in the Russian capital is working around the clock in three shifts
“The cheapest coffin costs 6,700 roubles ($225) but there are only a few left,” a funeral service attendant said.
Twelve million [yes, 3 times NZ] are affected [by floods] in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab provinces, while a further two million are affected in Sindh.
Not to mention China getting a beating
China is battling the worst flooding in a decade
In related news, Climate change talks go backwards
Global climate change talks have moved backwards since last year, say negotiators from both rich and poor nations at discussions in Germany.
Great, just great.

I’d take the spare Bodies down to the local BP Station for storage – certainly the dead don’t seem to mind.

Not so long ago these would have all been explained as “Acts of God”.

The news headlines of the above proves David Suzuki to be a prophet; way back in the 70′s and 80′s he saw all this coming and backed it up with the science.
I hope the bloody global warming deniers are choking on their own vomit!
Chances are that if we listen to them we too could be choking to death!!!
IN THE NOT VERY DISTANT FUTURE!!!!!!!!

Better still we need to put all global warming deniers under aversion therepy Clockwork Orange style.
That’s right strap them to a chair, clamp their eyes open and force them to look at the news viddies of Moscow suffocating, forrests burning and Pakistan drowning!
When they feel sick they may be considered to be cured!
