Modeling data showed that as temperatures rise, more people will die from heat than from hypothermia.

By the end of the 21st century, the number of deaths in Europe caused by extreme heat may triple, according to a study published in the journal Lancet Public Health. The Guardian reported this.

Scientists warn that summer heat could pose serious health challenges in the future. If average temperatures rise 3°C above pre-industrial levels, heat-related deaths could reach alarming levels, reaching around 44,000 annually.

Modeling data for 854 cities showed that as temperatures rise, more people will die from heat than from hypothermia.

The most vulnerable are Mediterranean countries such as Italy, Greece and Spain, which are already experiencing abnormal temperatures, as well as the oldest age groups of the population.

It will be remembered that in 2023, more than 47 thousand people died in Europe due to extremely high temperatures. This is stated in the report of the Barcelona Institute of Global Health

In Ukraine, the number of heat stroke and sunstroke has also increased due to the heat.

The hottest day on record in the world was July 21. The average daily temperature record, set since 1940, was broken.
