of course, but that isn't as a controversial a topic.

weather varies too much from year to year. You could have a cold winter this year, though so far, it's not looking like it.

You reckon a fair few thousand lives were saved by temperature a fraction of a degree higher on average. Wouldn't that be more than the entire number of elderly people who die due to heat-related reasons?

France struggled (if not failed) to deal with a nasty heatwave. I can't see Britain doing any better, with air conditioning being fairly rare.
