A study by Spanish scientists published in the journal Science of the Total Environment links hot flashes to aggression and, according to this study, climate influences violent attitudes.
According to other studies by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley and Princeton University, climate change is closely linked to many manifestations of violence occurring around the world.
- Relatively small deviations from normal temperature or precipitation have significantly increased violent attitudes and the risk of conflict in different places and times in history.
- The authors were able to show that the Earth’s climate is a variable with the greatest influence on our behavior and mood than expected.
Examples of this investigation include spikes in domestic violence in India and Australia, increased assaults and killings in the United States and Tanzania, ethnic violence in Europe and South Asia, land invasions in Brazil, police use in the Netherlands, and civil unrest in the tropics. .
“It is strange that a revolution occurs in a climate of calm and common sense. Are the brains unbalanced, the imagination bewildered, obscured, populated with ghosts?
These new studies can have important implications for estimating how the climate change we are experiencing around the world can affect us. Many global climate models predict a global temperature rise of at least 2 degrees Fahrenheit over the next half century.
Scientists have discovered three types of climate change-related conflicts, and realized that the conflict responds more systematically to temperature, with a positive relationship between high temperatures and increased violence or violent attitudes in 27 studies.
These researchers collected information from 60 existing studies containing 45 different datasets to draw common conclusions within a common statistical framework. “The results were astonishing,” said Solomon Hsiang, lead author of the study and associate professor of public policy at Goldman School at the University of California, Berkeley.

According to a study by several Spanish scientists, there is a relationship. Belén Sanz Barbero, Cristina Linares, Carmen Vives-Cases, José Luis González, Juan José López-Ossorio and Julio Díaz are the co-authors of “Bochornos and Risk of Intimate Couple Violence”.
A recent study published in the journal Science of the Total Environment suggests that the risk of femicide by an intimate partner increases within three days of a heat wave, depending on the large number of women reporting or reporting having experienced an episode of violence at the hands of their partner, scientists point out that this aspect is of extreme importance in identifying factors that may precipitate violent behavior in such Cases.
Based on this data, scientists say the couple’s risk of femicide increased over the three days after the heat wave, while police reports of gender-based violence increased a day later.
Also, five days later, support calls for victims of gender-based violence increased, in particular the risk of a woman being killed by her partner is the most increasing: more than 28%. ”Our results suggest that hot flashes are associated with an increase in intimate partner violence,’ the researchers said in the paper’s findings.
