[Global Times Comprehensive Report] The latest research shows that there will be a "extreme high temperature" from Texas to Illinois. It is estimated that by 2053, at least one day in the area where the area is in the area will be as high as 125 (Hualhi (Hualhi (Hualhi ( 51.67 degrees Celsius).

According to a report on the 15th of the United States, a new study released by the Non -profit organization "First Street Foundation" showed that "in just 30 years, climate change will lead to the hotness of 48 states in the United States in the summer. And danger. "The analysis report studied the current and future high -temperature risks of the United States, and added analysis of related risks such as floods and wildfires. The cooling index is a thermal indicator that comprehensively air temperature and relative humidity to determine the body temperature. Studies have shown that there are about 8 million Americans under the current "exposure" under the "extreme high temperature" (the heat index exceeding 125). However, in the next 30 years, Americans affected by "extreme high temperature" are expected to increase by 13 times More, more than 100 million people. At the same time, the number of regions where the heat index reaches 125 in the United States every year will increase from 50 in 2023 to 1023 in 2053, an increase of more than 20 times. It is reported that this "extreme high temperature zone" in its development has formed a vulnerable area from northern Texas to Illinois, including San Louis, Kansas City, Memphis, Talza, and Chicago. The Gulf of Mexico and the southeast will have the maximum chance and the longest exposure to the so -called "dangerous weather". The number of days with the heat index exceeding 100 bria (37.8 degrees Celsius) will increase by more than 30 days. In addition, the continuous high temperature weather is most likely to occur in the west coast of the United States, while the states in the central and western regions, southeast and east coast are most likely to be exposed at extreme danger. The danger related to heat exposure is also increasing.

According to media analysis, due to the discharge of greenhouse gases (mainly from fossil fuel), the average temperature rises, and it is expected that extreme high temperatures will continue to be upgraded. The extremely hot night temperature during the heat waves will also increase the disease -related diseases, which will adversely affect public health. (Zhang Xiaoya Zhang Zixi)
