Brilliant
So, out of 16 models, 2 came up with some bonkers nonsense. Let's focus on that instead of the other 14A study in New York’s Manhattan used projections from 16 global climate models under two different greenhouse gas emission scenarios to predict temperature-related deaths in the 2020s, 2050s and 2080s.
In one, heat-related deaths rose by 91 per cent in the 2080s, compared with the annual average of 369 in the Big Apple’s most densely populated borough in the 1980s.
Another table, using alternative calculations, predicted a 50 per cent increase in heat deaths and a 22.1 per cent fall in deaths from the cold.
You could be excused for thinking that the Metro was owned by the Daily Mail. Oh wait...

If only there was a machine or something that can cool the air inside a building .. perhaps that could help? Oh - can't the powers that be use their collective knowledge to find the solution before we all die!!!!!
Another solution would be to reverse the flow of 'leccy to the wind turbines - get a bit of a breeze going.
