Human-Induced Climate Change Worsened 2015 Heatwave in India

The heat waves that killed nearly 2,500 people in India and 2,000 people in Pakistan in 2015 were exacerbated by human-induced climate change, scientists including those from IIT-Delhi have found. Researchers examined observational and simulated temperature and heat indexes and found that the heat waves in the two countries "were exacerbated by anthropogenic climate change". While the two countries typically experienced severe heat in the summer, the 2015 heat waves, which occurred in late May/early June in India and in late June/early July in Pakistan, have been linked to the deaths of nearly 2,500 people in India and 2,000 in Pakistan.
