Climate Change Could Kill Millions in Europe by 2100, Study Warns
Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis, discusses a Time magazine report warning that extreme temperatures could kill up to 2.3 million people in Europe by 2100. The study, covering 854 cities, highlights the urgent need for carbon reduction and climate adaptation. However, major European nations have yet to make meaningful emissions cuts, and some of the world’s biggest polluters operate in Europe. Without drastic action, temperatures could rise by 5 to 10 degrees Celsius, leading to severe public health and environmental crises.
