Desmond Tutu: 185 Million Africans Will Die

Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Nobel Laureate and climatologist, is quoted by Ecorazzi.com:
http://www.ecorazzi.com/2008/07/18/desmond-tutu-developed-countries-caused-global-warming/

From the quoted article: "Tutu said that businessmen who take flights instead of using video conferencing are sentencing the poor people of the world to death, and that up to 185 million Africans would die this century because of climate change."

Kaboom: Thank Gaia for brave souls like the Very Reverend Desmond Tutu, who exposes the Malthusian effects of wealthy people flying all over the world to resorts like Bali, Coopenhagen, and other beautiful places, rather than videoconferencing.

185 million deaths directly attribtable to Global Climate Change by the end of this century? The Pale Horse of Death gets yet another ride.

If 185mill are going to die, they might well die toward a good cause.

Cheers

Shit.

My first ever commenter turns out to be a warmongering neo-con whose avatar appears to be an APC (Anti Peace Crusader) vehicle.

Not only that, but zero compassion towards the 185 millions on Death Row.

It is easy to see why the West is hated so.

It's not an "APC (Anti Peace Crusader) vehicle", it's a "Cougar".

As for the 185mill dead, you have yet to account for the cleanup requirements.
