    Climate change not on death certificates but should be, say experts

    Climate change is a killer, but we don't acknowledge it on death certificates.


    Heat-related deaths have been so prevalent of late that health experts are calling for the root cause – climate change – to be added to death certificates as a cause of death.


    Heat-related deaths have been "substantially underreported" on national records, say Australian National University (ANU) researchers, who claim the number of deaths attributed to excessive natural heat is at least 50 times more than recorded on death certificates.


    In the past 11 years, 340 deaths in Australia were recorded as being due to excessive heat but further analysis found 36,765 deaths could have been attributed to heat.

    SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!

    I can't say I'm surprised. Ridiculous.

    That would be about the same as writing "open Chinese borders" on death certificates after Covid-19 deaths, even if it were true.
