A new report by The Lancet warns that heat-related deaths could increase by 4.7 times by mid-century. The study reveals that in 2022, 60% of health-threatening high temperatures were at least twice as likely to occur due to human-caused climate change. The report attributes this crisis to the negligence of governments, companies, and banks that continue to invest in oil and gas. The findings highlight the urgent need for faster and more effective mitigation efforts to protect people's health and safety.
