So-called leading media outlets such as Tagesschau and Süddeutsche Zeitung recently suggested a “tripling of heat-related deaths.” But current mortality data from the EU-funded platform Euromomo paints a very different picture. The survey, supported by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the WHO, evaluated preliminary figures from 26 European countries and regions – and they amount to a bitter blow for climate alarmists: during the alleged heat catastrophe between the end of June and the beginning of July, Europe recorded no significant excess mortality.
This stands in stark contrast to the headlines based on a model from Imperial College London: “Climate change triples heat deaths during recent heatwave” or “Two-thirds more deaths due to recent heatwave!” However, the Euromomo data for calendar weeks 26 and 27 show minor deviations from expected mortality only in Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands – in all other countries examined, including Germany, France, and Italy, death rates remained within the normal range.
A telling detail: Imperial College London, whose researchers published the alarmist forecasts, had already caused a stir during the Coronavirus pandemic with drastically exaggerated modeling. At the time, the predictions for Swedish death tolls were 75 times too high—a fact that also calls into question the credibility of current heat death calculations.
Nevertheless, climate researcher Friederike Otto of Imperial College persists in her climate alarmism: “The study highlights a simple fact: burning more oil, coal, and gas will kill more people.” Her colleague Ben Clarke argues similarly: “Heatwaves don’t leave a trail of destruction like wildfires or storms. Their consequences are largely invisible, yet quietly devastating.”
Recently, July 13, 2025, hikers confronting an alleged arsonist at Runyon Canyon in Los Angeles, where brush fires were started. The incident was reported by ABC7 Los Angeles and Fox News. These fires are often cited as the result of “global warming”.
The Euromomo figures now seriously call such statements into question. While the model predicted 320 additional deaths in Milan, 286 in Barcelona, and 235 in Paris, the actual data shows no anomalies.
The fact that supposedly “reputable” media uncritically adopted the Imperial College modeling without pointing out its lack of empirical basis once again fuels doubts about mainstream reporting on climate issues. For the time being, there can be no talk of a “heat death crisis” in Europe.
