Today’s silly climate scare comes from Time:

They write:
As the number of extreme heat days continues to rise due to climate change, the high temperatures are taking a toll on our health—extreme heat has been linked to a range of health issues, including heatstroke, dehydration, and respiratory problems. But some people are at greater risk than others: warmer days are putting pregnant people at a higher risk for health complications.
One Climate Central analysis published on May 14 found that extreme heat caused by climate change is posing dangerous risks for maternal health and birth outcomes. Between 2020 to 2024, the average number of pregnancy heat-risk days—defined as days in which maximum temperatures are warmer than 95% of temperatures observed in a given location—doubled in 222 countries. The greatest increase in heat-risk days occurred primarily in developing areas with limited access to health care, including the Caribbean, parts of Central and South America, and sub-Saharan Africa.
Climate Central, of course, are not scientific experts in climate or anything else – they are a lobby group set up to misinform the public.
As for all these supposed heat effects on babies, the facts tell a different story.
Take Nicaragua, for example:
Babies there have never been healthier.
But you won’t hear that from Time.
