Although I argued with him previously on something else, @Leisesturm was pretty much dead on here IMO.

While his two "great lines" are true, they are also in an unacceptable way incorrect. Dead people do solve climate change, if there are enough of them. Since live people cause climate change. And sick people respond even more quickly to environmental challenges - by getting sicker more quickly. All in the unacceptable spirit of "thinning the herd is such a great idea".
