More than 6.5 billion people — 81% of the global population — experienced climate change-attributed heat in July 2023, according to a new report from Climate Central.
Four out of every five humans alive experienced at least one day of abnormally hot temperatures in July — a global onslaught of extreme heat that would not have been possible without climate change, according to new research., although official verification from federal meteorological agencies is still pending.
Global exposure peaked July 10, when 3.5 billion people experienced a Climate Shift Index level of 3 or higher, indicating that human-caused climate change made unusually hot temperatures at least three times more likely, the report said. At least 2 billion people felt a CSI level 3 or higher on each of the 31 days in July.“There’s nothing about this that is normal,” said Andrew Pershing, vice president of science at Climate Central, during a press briefing Tuesday.
While the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and other agencies have not yet verified that July was the hottest month ever recorded on Earth, daily data makes it “pretty clear that we’re going to set that record,” Pershing said. From July 3 through 31, global daily average temperatures were continuously hotter than the previous record set in August 2016.
