Core Insights - A new study published in the journal Nature Medicine indicates that high temperatures in Europe, influenced by climate change, are linked to tens of thousands of deaths annually [1] - The research, led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health, covers 32 European countries and estimates that over 181,000 deaths related to high temperatures occurred from 2022 to 2024, with more than 62,700 deaths in the summer of 2024 alone [1] - Italy is projected to have the highest number of heat-related deaths in summer 2024, exceeding 19,000, followed by Spain with over 6,700, and Germany, Greece, and Romania also significantly affected [1] - The study highlights that women and the elderly are at a higher risk of heat-related deaths during summer [1] - The warming rate in Europe is approximately twice the global average, necessitating enhanced climate change adaptation strategies, including the development of advanced heat health warning systems [1]
