Global warming is not only affecting the planet but also impacting our sleep patterns. Recent research from Climate Central has shown that rising nighttime temperatures are causing sleep disruptions all around the world. According to a study, global average temperatures have increased by more than 3.4 degrees Fahrenheit since 1850, with a new record being set in 2023.
Interestingly, nighttime temperatures are rising at a faster rate than daytime temperatures as the planet continues to warm. This trend makes it harder for people to get quality rest and recover from the heat of the day. The study suggests that these hot and sleepless nights can have serious consequences, including an increased risk of mortality by up to 50%.
Lack of quality sleep can also lead to physical and mental health issues such as impaired brain development, learning difficulties, and poor school performance. As climate change continues to manifest in our daily lives, it is important to address these issues and take action to mitigate their impact on both our well-being and the planet.
