Climate-change disasters kill 300,000 a year - Yahoo! News

Climate-change disasters kill 300,000 a year - Yahoo! News: "The report suggests that rising sea levels, desertification and changing rainfall patterns are reducing many people's access to safe drinking water and food. This in turn increases diarrhea, malaria and malnutrition." The Crude Death Rate is the number of deaths per 1,000. I got the following from World Resources Institute under their portal called EarthTrends. http://earthtrends.wri.org. From 1950-1955 the world CDR was 20. From 2000-2005 the world CDR was 9. These manipulators from the The Global Humanitarian Forum and the "reporters" have access to this just as you and I, and yet they still want to make these ridiculous claims. How can it be that the CDR has dropped in half and yet we have so many people dying from so-called Climate Change (aka weather)? Crisis after crisis after crisis. "Never waste a crisis"
