Look at how climate related deaths have dropped dramatically over the past century.

What are you worried about, exactly?

This doesn't mean much if you consider we may have just gotten better about predicting and avoiding human loss during extreme weather events.

A better indicator IMO is the amount of property damage from extreme weather events, which has been trending up sharply since the 80s: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/billions/summary-stats#temp...

That's because there are more buildings.

Wait, are you suggesting current climate related deaths are a good indicator of what the climate will be doing in 30 years from now?

Are you suggesting you can predict the future 30 years from now?
