Thanky you systemvoltage for introducing me to humanprogress.org. This graph on "climate related deaths" that manages to pool together deaths of the early 20th century with those of the early 21st, is pure propaganda genius.

Early 20th century "climate deaths" will have been caused by the lack of basic heating and most importantly infrastructure, a problem that very much was solved by the massive usage of cheap oil energy deployed during the 20th century. The same category of "climate deaths" for the early 21st century, has more details on causes, and yeah, sure, disasters where cheap oil is not the solution, but the root cause.

I grant you that many greens have no idea what a sustainable lifestyle looks like: at 2000 Watts for everyone, which optimistically could be a realistic goal, each human is living in maximum 15 square meters of housing.
Also, with the CO2 threat being taken seriously, you can only fly in a plane four times maximum in your lifetime...

Those that are ready to learn about and accept this kind of constraints want humanity to survive, those that don't, implicitly don't.
