June heatwave in UK led to ‘mass sleep deprivation’, poll suggests

The UK's June heatwave, driven by the climate crisis, caused widespread sleep deprivation, according to a recent poll. With record temperatures making many homes uncomfortably hot, two-thirds of people reported difficulty sleeping, with nearly half losing at least three hours of sleep each night. This trend aligns with scientific studies indicating that global heating is significantly affecting human health and well-being. As temperatures soared, it highlighted the urgent need to address climate change to protect public health and comfort.
