London, Britain – Leading scientists and epidemiologists found that at least 1,147 people died in the United Kingdom as a result of heat waves resulting from climate change during the summer.
The United Kingdom witnessed its freest summer season recorded this year.
Experts say heat-related accidents have been more likely and severe due to human-caused global warming.
A study conducted by researchers at Imperial University London and published on Wednesday used modeling, historical death records and peer review methods to provide early estimates of deaths this summer.
The team found that climate change, primarily caused by the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, caused temperatures to increase by an average of 2.2 degrees Celsius.
It reaches 3.6 degrees Celsius between June and August.
According to the team’s analysis, Al-Hur was responsible for 68% of the total 24,400 deaths in 854 European cities or regions over the three months.
The study found that this equates to 16,500 deaths compared to what would have been seen during a summer that did not witness heat resulting from human activities.
Including 835 deaths in Rome, 630 in Athens, 409 in Paris, and 387 in Madrid.
People often die from underlying diseases such as heart, kidney and respiratory problems.
Which is exacerbated by rising temperatures, and the role of the free man is rarely recorded on death certificates.
