🌍 2024 broke records for extreme weather– heatwaves, droughts, storms, & floods killed thousands & displacing millions. World Weather Attribution & @ClimateCentral show these were intensified by human-induced climate change. 🔥 Get the full picture ➡️ ow.ly/FeHg50UFAfH
Human-induced climate change has made most of 2024's extreme weather events more likely or more severe
