Studies have been done that overwhelmingly indicate that all heat waves are caused by human –caused climate change. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the American Meteorological Society conducted a study that eighteen different research teams from around the world contributed to. In this research, they examined the causes of twelve extreme events
