  • Summary

  • Last year, the global average person experienced 26 more days of abnormally high heat due to climate change, significantly impacting vulnerable populations and prompting cities to adopt heat action plans despite the unreliable relief from natural climate patterns like La Niña. Additionally, increased flight turbulence incidents, rising 15% this year, are linked to climate change-altering jet streams. These challenges highlight the need for advanced prediction models, updated air travel safety policies, and better preparedness for evolving aviation risks.
