Malaria is not related to global warming. Mosquitos are a problem in Alaska and the northern portions of Russia. They have had outbreaks of malaria there before. When people make predictions like malaria becoming more of a problem, you really need to study history to see if malaria is really a problem limited to warmer climes.

The question is, should we be concerned about carbon at all? If so, then global warming would be the solution, not the problem. Consider how much CO2 is spewed into the air by snowplows and blowers having to clear snow from vast numbers of runways, parking lots, city streets, rural roads, highways and interstates every time it snows. Consider how much CO2 is spewed into the air when we have to heat our homes, businesses, hospitals, schools, and factories to a liveable temp of approx. 68 degrees. Consider the amount of CO2 that it produced in places that it frequently gets down to -20 - -40. Those temps must be raised 108 degrees to get to said 68. No, if CO2 is a problem, global warming is the best preventative.
