We are ending the year on a truly absurd note, as failed US presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton has told the present climate change talkfest, Cop28, that extreme heat has killed around 500,000 people, presumably this year, most of them women and girls. Now she was apparently not called out for this bull, and bull it is. There is no reference on the internet to this mass death, and it would show up in the UN population projections for sure. Yet she is free to dribble whatever she likes so long as it is the party line.
