Rising temperatures are responsible for nearly a fifth of the world’s dengue burden, according to the new findings — a share that’s expected to keep rising.

Increasing global temperatures wrought by greenhouse gas emissions have boosted the number of dengue cases, new research shows.

One in five cases of dengue fever can be linked to climate change, and future surges in the mosquito-borne virus are i

Linking how global warming affects health — such as driving outbreaks or spreading disease — remains a new field

Climate change is responsible for a 19% increase in dengue cases, highlighting the growing health risks linked to environmental changes.

Amid record year for dengue infections globally, a new study has found that climate change is responsible for 19 per cent of rising dengue burden.

Climate change is responsible for nearly a fifth of the record number of dengue cases worldwide this year, US researchers said on Saturday, seeking to shine a light on how rising temperatures help spread disease.

Climate change has the potential to spark an additional 40-60 per cent spike by 2050 — and by as much as 150-200 per cent in some areas — according to a study

New research suggests that climate change is currently driving a surge in global dengue infections and that case rates could increase by 60% by 2050.

It’s been a record year for dengue infections, and amidst the surge in cases, researchers have been trying to pinpoint the causes. Now, a new study suggests that climate change is responsible for 19 percent of the current global dengue burden – and could soar as high as 60 percent if nothing is done to combat global warming.
