Heat Wave Study: Afghanistan is the most at-risk region for reporting extreme temperatures, says a new study. It also suggests that every region in the world must be prepared for record-breaking heat waves in the future.

A new study by researchers in Britain takes a unique approach to identifying which places are most at risk.

 Interventions such as establishing cooling centres or reducing work hours for outdoor workers can help  

Dangerous, record-breaking heat waves are set to increase as the climate crisis intensifies, and they will be particularly devastating in countries and regions that are least prepared for them, according to a new study.

Scientists have identified which parts of the world are facing increased risk as climate change makes heatwaves longer, more frequent and more intense.

Scientists at the University of Bristol warn that millions are in peril as more record-breaking temperature extremes are predicted to occur in the coming decades.

Researchers identified regions, such as Afghanistan, Papua New Guinea, and Central America, as most vulnerable to record-breaking heatwaves, emphasizing the need for action plans to mitigate risks and harms. A new study has highlighted under-prepared regions across the world most at risk of the d

It’s the regions of the world that haven’t yet experienced an off-the-charts heat wave that we should worry about, a new scientific study argues.

To pinpoint the regions most likely to experience extreme heat events, the researchers employed extreme value statistics

Developing countries that have avoided record-breaking heat for many decades are the least prepared for future “exceptional” heatwaves, new research warns.
