A non-profit, Climate Central, analyzes and reveals a unprecedented truth about the rise in global average temperature in the past year. Heat waves are now more common due to the impact of climate change, threatening the world’s population with extreme temperatures. One researcher has predicted that, if not addressed, heat records could be shattered in the next year. Furthermore, the group recently published a new analysis based on previous climate research that raises concerns regarding government plans to extract and produce twice the amount of fossil fuels required to maintain stable global temperatures. Reports also show a year of extreme heat in the U.S. and a significant increase in deaths associated with heatwaves in Arizona. Wildfires in Canada were also proven to have been at least twice as likely due to climate change. This revealing analysis was published by NBCNews.com.
