I almost can't type this because of laughter. Yes, once again...review the warmlist to get a feel for all the scare stories--ALL THE THINGS THE MEDIA TELLS US GLOBAL WARMING CAUSES. After that, read the GASP! series here. You'll learn how silly all this has become. If you can read all these "RESULTS" of global warming and still not laugh, you deserve some nice Kool-Aid to help ease the heat from all the warming and nail biting.
Global warming may increase kidney stones: researchers:
More Americans are likely to suffer from kidney stones in the coming years as a result of global warming, according to researchers at the University of Texas.Kidney stones, which are formed from dissolved minerals in the urine and can be extremely painful, are often caused by caused by dehydration, either by not drinking enough liquid or losing too much due to high heat conditions.
If global warming trends continue as projected by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2007, the United States can expect as much as a 30 percent growth in kidney stone disease in some of its driest areas, said the findings published in Monday's Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The increased incidence of disease would represent between 1.6 million and 2.2 million cases by 2050, costing the US economy as much as one billion dollars in treatment costs.
