We’re All Gonna Die! Pt. 1
Written by Brian Garst, Posted in Energy and the Environment
I always get a good chuckle monitoring the daily global warming hysteria. It’s gotten to the point where it’s impossible to turn around without running into another report on how global warming is going to make life miserable. In honor of the media’s obsession of stoking fear over global warming I’m beginning this series, which will run for as long as I have material (which doesn’t look to be running out anytime soon), highlighting all the myriad ways in which global warming is supposed to ruin our lives.
First up: Kidney Stones!
Latest research indicates that global warming could have another unwanted spin-off – it may spur the formation of kidney stones.
Dehydration, particularly in warmer climes and higher temperatures, will only exacerbate this effect. Consequently, the prevalence of stone disease may increase, along with the costs of treatment.
This is going to be fun.
