Climate change may increase mortality, by the end of the century, there will be a six-fold increase in heat
Climate change: Climate change could lead to an increase in the death rate because by the end of this century it will cause a six-fold increase in heat. This has been said in a research published in the Lancet Planetary Health Journal.
Climate change could lead to an increase in the death rate, as it will cause a six-fold increase in warming by the end of this century. This has been said in a research published in the Lancet Planetary Health Journal. Researchers from the University of North Carolina in the US said that due to climate change in the coming times, there will be widespread heat at night and this will disrupt the normal sleep of people. Lack of sleep will weaken the immune system and increase the risk of heart disease, chronic diseases, inflammation and mental health.
The danger of many diseases due to excessive heat
The researchers found that by the year 2090, the average intensity of hot night events in 28 cities in East Asia will nearly double from 20.4 °C to 39.7 °C. Excessive heat that disrupts normal sleep will increase the risk of many diseases.
Due to increasing heat, there is a huge increase in the death rate
Yuqiang Chang, an environmental scientist who participated in the research, said the dangers of rising night temperatures are often overlooked. Researchers have estimated the death toll from extreme heat between 1980 and 2015 in 28 cities in China, South Korea and Japan based on two climate change models, on the basis of which the death rate due to warming has increased significantly. The possibility of an increase has been expressed.
