Climate change played a role in the hotter-than-normal days seen in various parts of Asia, including the Philippines, in April, a group of scientists said.

Guided by peer-reviewed methodologies, scientists from the World Weather Attribution examined how human-induced climate change affected the probability and severity of the extreme heat in West, South, and parts of Southeast Asia in April.For the Philippines, the climate scientists analyzed the average daily maximum temperature for the period April 15 to 29, 2024, or 15 days.

''In terms of intensity, we estimate that a heatwave such as this one in West Asia is today about 1.7°C warmer than it would have been without the burning of fossil fuels. In the Philippines, the intensity increase due to human-induced climate change is about 1.2°C.''The study also said the current El Niño made the heatwave in the Philippines ''about 0.2°C hotter.
