Scientists assert that human-induced climate change rendered a deadly heatwave in West Africa and the Sahel region 'impossible.'
Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, elevated temperatures by up to 1.4C above normal levels.Advertisementand the Sahel region “impossible.” Last month, temperatures in Mali soared above 48C, with one hospital attributing hundreds of deaths to the extreme heat. Researchers affirm that human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, elevated temperatures by up to 1.4C above normal levels.
Around half of the deceased were over 60 years of age, with the hospital attributing heat as a contributing factor to many of these casualties.Advertisement According to the study, climate change caused temperatures to rise to 1.5C above normal in Mali and Burkina Faso, making nights even hotter by 2C above the average. The overall temperature across the region was elevated by 1.4C throughout the five days.
While intense heatwaves are still relatively rare in this region, researchers anticipate them becoming more common as the climate warms.
