Climate Change Attribution: The Quest For Truth Amidst The Chaos

The skepticism toward specific climate-attribution studies, especially those claiming a direct causal link between climate change and individual weather events, finds a compelling case in the study attributing dangerous humid heat in southern West Africa to climate change. [emphasis, links added]


This nonpeer-reviewed study posits that because of human-induced climate change, extreme humid heat events, like the one observed in February 2024, have become significantly more intense and are expected to become even more frequent in the future.

A critical point of contention arises from the historical comparison with a similar record set in 1998, the blue line below, and the bold prediction that such events will occur approximately every two years.
