Original: El Niño projected to cause 450k deaths in next six months
A Guardian report projects that the current El Niño event could cause around 450,000 additional deaths over the next six months. The figure reflects expected impacts on food security, disease and extreme weather across affected regions. The scale of the projected toll is drawing attention to the human cost of the climate pattern and to preparedness gaps in vulnerable countries.
Why now: The newly published projection of a very large death toll from the current El Niño is striking readers.
