OVER DEZE AFLEVERING

The contrast comes as a powerful El Niño develops, bringing potentially devastating consequences worldwide: a new report from the University of Chicago’s Climate Impact Lab estimates that unusually high temperatures could contribute to more than 451,000 deaths between June 2026 and February 2027. Indiana University climate scientist Chris Callahan joins The World to discuss the report, the potential impacts of a “Super El Niño,” and what can be done to protect vulnerable populations.
