Heatwaves are becoming more frequent, more intense and lasting longer...this isn’t something we should accept as the new normal.
We need to act now to cut emissions and build a more resilient energy system for the future 🌱⚡

A monthly record for February since at least 1880! 🌡️
Words truly fail to describe such early heatwaves, which are so out of season and detrimental to ecosystems.

Climate change added between 3-4°C to maximum temperatures and is estimated to be responsible for about 42% of the deaths across both heatwaves 🧵

A new study found that emissions from major oil companies directly caused dozens of extreme heatwaves worldwide, linking corporate pollution to deadly climate events.

MACE recorded:
🔴 1209 deaths from extreme heat
🟠 3008 from moderate heat
Moderate heat kills more than heatwaves. Chronic, cumulative exposure flies under the radar, but not under the data.

A study reveals day-night heatwaves cause far higher mortality than daytime or nighttime events alone. These 'compound heatwaves' overwhelm our ability to adapt, showing the need for better warning systems.

It's the 31st heatwave since 1901.
15 of which occurred since 2000.
Implying an increase of ~300%!
And there were only 8 heatwaves during the first 75 years of the 20th century.

From heat domes over the United States, to prolonged heatwaves across Europe
Places in the Middle East are even forecasting temperatures into the 50s this week 🌡️

According to the European #Climate Report, 2024 saw:
🌡️ Record-breaking ‘strong heat stress’ days and tropical nights in southeastern Europe during summer
🥵 In recent decades, heat has been the leading cause of reported deaths due to extreme weather

Hiiiiiii everyone. I'm a climate scientist who specialises in all things #heatwaves🌡️☀️ currently researching health-relevant heatwave projections & heatwaves after net zero. Based at ANU in Australia, also do lots of science comms work.
