The people of the world may soon see even more dangerous effects due to climate change. If nothing is done about climate change, 90,000 Europeans could die every year by the end of the century. The European Environment Agency (EEA) has warned the world about heatwaves.
By the year 2100, about 90,000 people may die every year.
According to the agency, 90,000 Europeans could die annually from extreme heat, given the scenario of 3 °C global warming by 2100, if environmentally friendly measures are not found. It also said that with 1.5°C of global warming, it could reduce 30,000 deaths annually.
At the same time, many countries have pledged to keep global warming at 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels. This is a goal that is difficult to achieve because of current emissions trends around the world.
Between 1980 and 2020, 129,000 people died due to heat
The European Environment Agency (EEA), citing insurance data, said that between 1980 and 2020, about 129,000 Europeans died from extreme heat. More frequent warming associated with climate change, increasing population, and increasing urbanization have made this figure likely to increase in the coming years. The situation could be direr, especially in the south of the continent.
15000 people died in Europe so far this year
The World Health Organization said on Monday that hot weather has killed at least 15,000 people in Europe so far this year. The three months of June-August were the warmest in Europe since summer records began. The exceptionally high temperatures have caused the continent's worst drought since the Middle Ages.
Apart from the heat, there are many other dangers for the world
Beyond the threat of heat, the Environment Agency said climate change could also make Europe more vulnerable to infectious diseases spread by mosquito bites such as malaria and dengue fever. Also said that warm sea water is becoming increasingly suitable for cholera-causing bacteria. Its impact is particularly high on the coast of the Baltic Sea.
These measures can prevent future deaths
The EEA called for action to avoid these heatwave deaths, saying that in the European context almost all deaths linked to high temperatures are preventable. A wide range of solutions, including accommodating health action plans, urban greening, appropriate building design, and construction work, need to be implemented to reduce the health effects of heat.
