Heat-event-triggered deaths: 61K, Europe
*Heatwave last summer killed
61,000 people in Europe,
research finds.*
This is surely just a small fraction of the people killed in 2022 by
the increasing heat of global heating. People die from heat on every
hot day, even normal summer days, and as normal summer days get hotter,
more people die from the heat.
Global heating kills people in indirect ways, including due to
food shortages caused by floods and droughts. I'd expect it to
be millions per year. Can anyone find a plausible estimate?
