Global Warming Will Kill Bugs and Make There Be Too Many of Them
Not only polar bears are oppressed by the nonexistent global warming phenomenon, but also bugs. The BBC claims that in warmer latitudes, bugs will die from the heat, which will be bad. It will also cause there to be more bugs at higher latitudes, which will also be bad.
As with temperatures, bug demographics must never fluctuate if they are to meet with the approval of the Beeb.
The trouble will occur when bugs
struggle to cope with the 5.4C rise in tropical temperatures expected by 2100.
No attempt is made to support the 5.4°C temperature stat. Maybe they should master predicting the weather next weekend before telling us what it will be in 92 years.
On a tip from conservativeteen.

My favorite bug movie? Why its BUG of course - 70s cheese at its best. I vividly recall a bug crawling up the tailpipe of a car, rubbing its legs together and blowin up the car. Talk about fire bugs..

It looks like they're quietly abandoning the global metric, as the claim that there will be a huge global temperature rise increasingly falls apart. So now they're looking to claim large local temperature changes.
We can expect the significance of the global metric to be downplayed and eventually disappear from the debate as they continually shift the ground to evade debunking- basically the old "why are you deniers still talking about that old thing now that the science has moved on?" argument they deployed against the hockey stick debunking. Ten years say from now we may well find an argument that runs something like
Sceptic: "ten years ago you said we'd face a 5 degree rise in global temperature. You were wrong"
Hoaxer: "Oh that old thing. We now know that CO2 won't affect the global temperature so much, but will cause massive local variations that will be even more devastating!"
Sceptic: "So you admit you were wrong then?"
Hoaxer: "No, that's not how science works. Our understanding has improved."

Ian,
I'll bet you turn out to be correct.

But the moonbats should welcome this opportunity to watch evolution in action, shouldn't they?
Some bugs will grow fur and some will learn to swim underwater and others will become president of PETA and yet more will take control of Al Gore's brain.

I think their latest subterfuge is actually called "Abrupt Climate Change". Google it. It's not whether the temperature goes up, down, or stays the same, it's the suddenness of the event (any event) that matters. We used to call this "weather", but now it's a crisis and it's getting worse!!!

Good God, what is that insect on the kid's hand?

Looks like a Hercules beetle to me.
