The scorching heatwave that hit Canada and the US in June was "virtually impossible" without climate change, said a team of climate researchers from the World Weather Attribution group. The extreme heatwave, which is supposed to be a once-in-a-1000-year-event is now likely to appear about 150 times more than its normal routine, they added. Human-influenced climate change has been a cause of alarming concern for climate scientists all over the world. The town of Lytton, BC set a new all-time record of 49.6 degrees celsius.
