Super El Nio may kill 65 times more people than Nepal flash flood, report claims; lakhs may lose their lives in next six months

El Nio is expected to result in approximately 451,000 heat-related deaths by February 2027. The Climate Impact Lab forecasts high mortality rates particularly in regions of the Global South. Nigeria, India, and several Southeast Asian countries will face the highest increases in deaths. The phenomenon will alter global weather patterns and raise temperature averages. Experts warn that these conditions might become more common due to ongoing climate change.
