Heat waves and death have been a fact of life on earth since the beginning - cities have aggravated the issue - especially in poor countries and democrat controlled cities.

But did you know cold kills 20 times more than heat.

Cold weather is 20 times as deadly as hot weather, and it's not the extreme low or high temperatures that cause the most deaths, according to a study published Wednesday.

The study found the majority of deaths occurred on moderately hot and moderately cold days instead of during extreme temperatures.

"Although the risk of mortality due to extremely cold or hot days is actually higher, they are less frequent," said lead author Antonio Gasparrini of the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine.

The study — published in the British journal The Lancet — analyzed data on more than 74 million deaths in 13 countries between 1985 and 2012. Of those, 5.4 million deaths were related to cold, while 311,000 were related to heat.

Can you show us where the 7 billion humans were living?

As if only human life has been affected by weather, animals and plants have thrived during higher co2 times.

Cold periods have caused mass extinctions - not c02.
