The researchers estimated an extra 8,000 people would die each year as a result of \u201csuboptimal temperatures\u201d even under the most optimistic scenario for cutting planet-heating pollution. The hottest plausible scenario they considered showed a net increase of 80,000 temperature-related deaths a year.<\/p>\n<p>The findings challenge an argument popular among those who say global heating is good for society because fewer people will die from cold weather. The study builds on previous research in which the scientists linked temperature to mortality rates for different age groups in 854 cities across Europe. They combined these with three climate scenarios that map possible changes in population structure and temperature over the century. In all three scenarios, they found, uncomfortable temperatures would kill more people than they do today. The scientists cautioned that the uncertainties in the data are large.<\/p>\n<p>Heat and cold are silent killers that hurt the body well before they reach extremes that cause hypothermia and heatstroke. Excess deaths soar during heatwaves, particularly among people who are old or sick, as hot weather forces their bodies into overdrive and stops them from resting. Cold spells raise blood pressure and contribute to a range of heart and lung problems.<\/p>\n<p>Source:<a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2025\/jan\/27\/dangerous-temperatures-kill-50-percent-more-europeans-end-century-climate\"> Guardian<\/a><\/p>\n<p><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/7-656\/\">Dangerous temperatures could kill 50% more Europeans by 2100, study finds<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,1347,525,10097],"class_list":["post-136906","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-european","tag-health","tag-temperatures"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/136906","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=136906"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/136906\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=136906"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=136906"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=136906"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
