"The IPCC's heralded Synthesis Report ... is like a polio report omitting the polio vaccine."

Climate-related disaster deaths
[Source: see Note 1]

"The IPCC's heralded Synthesis Report [the culmination of its lengthy 6th 'Assessment Cycle' of reports] is supposed to accurately synthesise the best information about human beings' climate impacts in order to rationally guide policy.
    "Instead, it severely distorts science to advance a corrupt political agenda....
    "A proper climate synthesis report must cover 2 key issues:
1. An even-handed (covering minuses and pluses) and precise account of our climate impacts.
2. An account of our ability to master climate danger, including the use of fossil fuel to neutralise its own negative climate impacts....
    "I recommend just skimming the IPCC Synthesis Report, linked below—this report that is supposed to be so brilliant—and just ask yourself if it is remotely even-handed about human impact on climate, or if it accounts for our mastery of climate. (https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/syr/downloads/report/IPCC_AR6_SYR_LongerReport.pdf )
    "Instead of an even-handed and precise account of our climate impacts, the IPCC SR gives us a blatantly biased view of exaggerated negative impacts, with no mention of positives like global greening thanks to CO2 fertilisation of the atmosphere or decreasing cold-related deaths.
    "Instead of accounting for our climate mastery ability, the IPCC SR ignores our ability to neutralise negative climate impacts, despite the fact that we've driven climate disaster deaths down by 98%over the last century!
    "This is like a polio report omitting the polio vaccine."
~ Alex Epstein and Stephen Henne, from their lengthy analysis of the IPCC Synthesis Report titled 'The IPCC's Perversion on Science'

Note 1: UC San Diego - The Keeling Curve
    For every million people on earth, annual deaths from climate-related causes (extreme temperature, drought, flood, storms, wildfires) declined 98%–from an average of 247 per year during the 1920s to 2.5 in per year during the 2010s.
    Data on disaster deaths come from EM-DAT, CRED / UCLouvain, Brussels, Belgium – www.emdat.be (D. Guha-Sapir).
    Population estimates for the 1920s from the Maddison Database 2010, the Groningen Growth and Development Centre, Faculty of Economics and Business at University of Groningen. For years not shown, population is assumed to have grown at a steady rate.
