The climate crisis is not a distant threat; it's happening right now and affecting what matters most to us. Hurricanes intensified by a warming planet and drought-fueled wildfires are destroying our communities. Rising seas and flooding are swallowing our homes. And record-breaking heat waves are reshaping our way of life.
The good news is we know how to turn the tide and avoid the worst possible outcomes. However, understanding what needs to be done can be confusing due to a constant stream of climate updates, scientific findings, and critical decisions that are shaping our future.
That's why the ABC News Climate and Weather Unit is cutting through the noise by curating what you need to know to keep the people and places you care about safe. We are dedicated to providing clarity amid the chaos, giving you the facts and insights necessary to navigate the climate realities of today -- and tomorrow.
If you've been losing sleep because of anxiety about our changing climate, you can now blame global warming for literally keeping you awake. A new study in Nature Communications suggests rising temperatures can make it harder for people to get a good night's sleep.
Researchers analyzed 23 million sleep records from more than 214,000 adults living in mainland China. They found that when the average daily temperature increased by 18 degrees Fahrenheit, people were 20.1% more likely to get insufficient sleep.
The study also suggests that by the end of the century, climate change-related sleep deprivation could increase by an average of 10.5%. If true, that would result in the average person losing more than 33 hours of sleep each year.

Climate change-related sleep deprivation. I’m sure Fauci can come with a vaccine for that.
Can’t do anything about it now. Embrace the suck. The far-lefties are burning down all the “planet saving” EVs to push their communist agenda.
Yes and eye lashes will fall out and hemorrhoids will increase!
ABC News / Disney is as far as one needs to read.
I sleep like a baby knowing “climate change” keeps others awake at night.
I just read that it’s all the 5G causing sleep deprivation.
What a huge pantload!
So if you live along the equator, you can’t do crap because you’re sleepy?
Do these people listen to themselves?
“If you’ve been losing sleep because of anxiety about our changing climate, you...”
Then you are mentally ill and/or believe the MSM, clearly these people have not taken a 5th grade level of intro to astronomy and geology.
I doubt they’re even that self aware.
i’ve been losing sleep since we changed the damn clocks.
As the lame stream media reports c(lie)mate stuff, they become more insignificant.
I laughed right out loud when I read that! How can this be a serious undertaking ???
May. Could. Might. It's possible. Some experts believe. Studies suggest.

Sleep deprivation is a major symptom of TDS.
I thought they figured out some time ago that the seas were not actually rising. Sure, the climate does change, but apparently there are different opinions on what this actually means. For instance, our local climate where I live means it is gradually turning into spring, but I’m sure this is not global change.
… 5G causing sleep deprivation.”
That I believe
since our local weather is also gradually turning into spring isn’t that proof enough of global change?
