Worried about El niño? Conflict and climate change are much bigger drivers of risk, on extreme heat across Asia. During the last El Niño climate change was by far the largest driver of extreme heat, while conflict in West Asia makes people much more vulnerable & exposed. doi.org/10.1016/j.wa...
NEW: Players and fans face increased heat danger at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, since USA '94.
Our results show that from Miami to Kansas City, climate change is increasing the risk of playing the World Cup in much of the northern hemisphere during summer. (1/2)
A heat dome in north America is producing record-shattering March temperatures, made even more deadly by human-caused warming. A super-rapid study from @wwattribution.bsky.social shows the risk of temperatures as high as these is now four times what it was just a decade ago 😱

Hot, sweaty, exciting - and increasingly deadly. Climate change will be an unwelcome but very present player in the upcoming FIFA World Cup in North America - especially in the fan zones. New @wwattribution.bsky.social study. www.worldweatherattribution.org/climate-chan...
Yes! Go and work with us, @joerirogelj.bsky.social & me and the whole @wwattribution.bsky.social team. You don't even have to be young, you can be old and do intersting climate related reserach!
Every year now, the pre-monsoon heat (the hottest time of year in South Asia with temperatures well over 40°C) starts earlier & lasts longer - due to human-induced climate change - exposing 1billion people to deadly heat. @wwattribution.bsky.social www.worldweatherattribution.org/climate-chan...

March in Western North America is deadly hot, completely above temperatures that would have been possible without climate change from burning oil, coal and gas. New record shatteringly rapid @wwattribution.bsky.social study www.worldweatherattribution.org/record-shatt...
In a rapidly warming world, landslides in high-risk areas are happening sooner rather than later. Making it paramount to reduce exposure & stop the rapid warming. New @wwattribution.bsky.social study on Juiz de Fora landslides www.worldweatherattribution.org/unplanned-ur...

Oft war nach dem Tod von Jürgen Habermas am 14. März in den zahlreichen Nachrufen die Rede von der Zäsur, die sein Ableben für das intellektuelle Leben der Bundesrepublik bedeutet. Für unsere…
RAPID ANALYSIS: It would be ‘virtually impossible’ for the record-breaking March heat currently scorching the U.S. West to occur without climate change.
We are seeing summer-like temperatures arrive exceptionally early from the Pacific to the Rockies this week. 🧵1/4
