“

Climate change will trigger a chain of events which is likely to increase the stress on society and result in higher vulnerability to diseases including HIV," he said.

 Climate change may also cause indirect health impacts by jeopardizing water supplies, producing stronger storms, and triggering migration from the countryside to cities.

An old joke about media bias has the New York Times running a headline on the last day of time that reads, "World Ends: Women, Minorities Hardest Hit".

Tim -- also reminds me of this'n:

A man is walking along in a zoo when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to devour her right in front her screaming parents.

Instantly the man runs to the cage, hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch. Whimpering from the pain, the lion jumps back letting go of the girl,
permitting the man to bring her to her terrified parents, who thank him profoundly and profusely.

A NY Times reporter witnessing the incident addresses the man, saying: "Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I've ever seen."

"Why, it was nothing," says the man, "actually, the lion was
behind bars and I knew God would protect me just as He did Daniel in the lions' den long, long ago. I just saw this little girl in
danger, and acted as I felt was right."

"I noticed a Bible in your pocket," said the journalist.
"Yes, I'm a Christian and was on my way to a Bible study."

"Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a New York Times
journalist, you know, and tomorrow's Times will cover this on the first page."

The journalist leaves. The following morning the man buys
his NY Times to see if it indeed brings news of his actions. There, on the very first page, he reads the following headline in bold print:

"Right Wing Christian fndamentalist Assaults African
Immigrant and Steals His lunch."

Rog, you've created art. You gave me a moment of clarity. The Fortunate Son is the information age reductio ad absurdum of the televangelist selling the ultimate heresy.
