No, there are no suggestions that global warming will cause cancer. The depletion of the ozone layer, which is still being caused by CFCs from last century does cause cancer. Skin cancers (basal and squamous cell carcinomas) and melanomas are caused by the dangerous ultra-violet radiation which a weakened ozone layer lets through.
