[extropy-chat] deaths due to low temperatures

[Spike]

If we eventually decide that global warming is due
primarily to human activity, then would we not become

caused by cold temperatures?  It would be humanity's
fault, since we theoretically had the means to prevent
the proles from freezing, yet failed to do so.
