Climate Change More Deadly then Ebola?

The recent Ebola scare is taking the spotlight off of the progressive agenda. Diehard members of the Libcrib were all fired up about the NFL and issues of domestic violence and had just marched in the streets of NY with Leonardo Dicaprio to bring awareness to climate change and the evils of capitalism. We have been told that ISIS is not an immediate threat in America, and that the recent beheading in Oklahoma is nothing more than yet another case of workplace violence. 

Then in walks Ebola . . . and the focus shifts to a deadly disease, one that the CDC forcefully claims can and will be contained. By the way, the number now is 80 people who have been identified as coming in contact with Thomas Eric Duncan, the Liberian man who flew to Dallas in late September bringing Ebola with him.

So what are the progressive messengers to do? Spin, spin, and spin some more by now claiming that climate change kills more people than Ebola.  According to Bloomberg, 

“Deaths from Ebola infection, tragic and frightening though they are, will pale into insignificance when compared with the mayhem we can expect for our children and grandchildren if the world does nothing to check its carbon emissions.”

Hmmm . . . personally, Unicorns will take their chances with climate change over an Ebola infection any day. What about you?
