Now tell me again why we shouldn’t act on climate change…
The current, record El Niño could contribute to 451,000 additional heat-related deaths over the next six months.
El Niño is natural. The increasingly dangerous heat baseline we’re experiencing is not.

More than 450,000 people are projected to die from the additional heat brought by the super El Niño in the next six months, according to estimates by climate scientists.
The toll is on top of the early deaths resulting from temperatures already driven up by the climate crisis. It will strike across the globe, from Indonesia to India, and Nigeria to the US. Many further deaths are expected from the droughts, wildfires and flooding that El Niños bring. Continue reading...

Huge El Niño projected to cause 450,000 deaths in next six months
NEW from the Climate Impact Lab:
“We project that 451,000 lives will be lost due to heat the first nine months (June-February) of #ElNiño, compared to a normal year. This is about 65 times larger than the 6,800 people believed to be dead or missing from the recent Nepal flash flood.”

ilmastonmuutos on edennyt sillä lailla, että on enää viikkoja aikaa vaihtaa viljelykasvit kuivuutta kestäviksi eteläisessä Afrikassa ennen kylvökautta ja El Niñon vaikutusta ensi vuonna. Ilmastokriisi on tosiaan nyt, eikä Suomessakaan ole syytä olla varautumatta. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
The worst El Niño in recorded history is brewing — here’s how governments must prepare
From southern Africa to the Amazon, the risks are mounting and the window for action is rapidly closing.

A staggering number of heat-related deaths over the next six months. The El Niño is also a “postcard from our future,” pushing up temperatures to the level the climate crisis is projected to deliver in 20 years’ time.
