Global warming is affecting the whole world. Scientists and Environmentalists have been warning about its dangers for the past several years. Now by researchers from University College London and University of Reading Study It has been found that the mortality rate associated with increasing temperature due to global warming will increase significantly. Let us tell you that the deaths directly related to increased temperature due to climate change, are called ‘temperature related mortality’. The study has revealed that if the heat in England and Wales increases by even 2 degrees Celsius compared to the level before the Industrial Revolution, then the hottest days of the year will increase by 42 percent. This would mean that the 10 hottest days of the year will see 166 deaths per day, instead of about 117 deaths at present.
The results of the study highlight an increase in the level of global warming by up to two degrees Celsius. The conclusion of this study is in the journal ‘Environmental research letters’. published Has been done.
Decrease in death rate in winter
At present global warming levels of about 1.21 dG, we see a slight decrease in the death rate associated with winter temperatures and a minimal effect in summer. This means that at this level of warming, we can see a slight decrease in the overall temperature-related death rate.

what the experts say
The author of this study and Dr Katty Huang of the Department of Environment and Geomatic Engineering at University College London says that the increase in the current warming level has been seen mainly during the heat wave. Now it will increase further.

Study on effects of global warming
The research team studied the impact of climate change on temperature-related mortality in England and Wales. In this, the focus was kept on deaths due to summer heat and winter cold. As global average temperatures continue to rise, summer temperature-related mortality will be much faster.
How will the death rate increase?
When the above variations are charted on a graph paper, the relationship between temperature and mortality will be roughly U-shaped. This means that for every one degree increase in the daily mean temperature in the event of extremely high temperatures, the death rate will also increase rapidly and this rate will decrease in winter.
