Climate change could quadruple deaths

Climate change could quadruple deaths | Science News | Scoop.it

SYDNEY: Climate change may quadruple the loss of life due to extreme heat in the city, a new Australian study has predicted.

Cunrui Huang and colleagues at Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane investigated how temperature changes affect the death rate in Brisbane. The study adopted a ground-breaking way of measuring climate change deaths, which could become standard for similar studies carried out for other cities.

"This is something every individual city has to look at," said co-author Adrian Barnett, explaining that cities around the world have unique climate and housing conditions. The results appear in Nature Climate Science today.
