Sassy Liberty AMERICA’S FREEDOM FIGHTERS –

Global warming is such a “huge issue” for Chelsea Clinton.  Apparently, Chelsea believes the pseudo-scientific fiction that is global warming will cause 100,000 more diabetes cases in America each year, so she took to Twitter to issue her dire warning to her followers.

Along with a link to a Los Angeles Times story detailing the cause for potential mass hysteria, Chelsea posted –

“Horrifying research shows a correlation between global warming & rise in diabetes cases.”

 

Chelsea is determined to trot along in her illustrious parents’ footsteps, following the same crooked path. If the facts do not support your premise?  Then make up facts that do, or find someone to do it for you.

Case in point, according to the LA Times article, Dutch researchers began to notice the number of diabetes cases claimed by the World Health Organization increased from 108 million in 1980 to 422 million in 2014. But rather than be reasonable and look into how increasingly sedentary lifestyles and crappy food is fueling the problem, they decided to look into the weather.

The first rule of statistics – correlation is not causation.

The Times reports –

“The researchers turned to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to gather data on the prevalence of diabetes in all 50 states for each year between 1996 and 2013. They also found the average temperature in each state in each year from the National Centers for Environmental Information.

Comparing the two, they found that the higher the average temperature in a particular time and place, the higher the age-adjusted incidence of diabetes. Overall, as the average annual temperature rose by 1 degree Celsius (or 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit), the number of diabetes cases rose by 3.1 per 10,000 people.”

But that .00031 percent increase is only one of the “horrifying” findings.

“Obesity is a risk factor for Type 2 diabetes, and the researchers also found that each 1-degree Celsius temperature increase was associated with a 0.173% increase in the prevalence of obesity.”

Of course, Twitter users had a few things to say in response to the idiocy –

I gotta pee … can't decide if it's because of global warming or the Russians
