10 Deadliest Storms Kill 570,000 People
The ten deadliest storms over the last 20 years have killed 570,000 figures. The data comes from the World Weather Attribution.
*Storm History
The analysis shows that climate change is at fault for a large portion of the deaths. “Many of the 576,042 deaths were avoidable, and all countries need to ramp up efforts to adapt to extreme weather, the researchers say.”
The List Of 10
The ten storms were Cyclone Sidr (2007), Cyclone Nargis (2008), the Russian Heatwave (2010), Somalia Drought (2011), India Floods (2013), Typhoon Haiyan (2013), Europe Heatwave (2015), Europe Heatwave (2022), Europe Heatwave (2023), and Storm Daniel (2023).
The researchers relied on a single source. “The study focused on the ten deadliest weather-related disasters in the EM-DAT database that have occurred since 2004.”
The problem with this is that the conclusions come from a single source. That is a problem, even if the conclusion is direct directionally.
