A report made this month by the Department of Environment and Science predicted a rise in Australia’s heatwaves and average temperature expected to affect people’s personal health, industries and the environment.

Average heatwaves are expected to rise from 32.5 degrees to 36 by 2090 and the average temperature of the peak of the heat waves will rise from 34 to 43 degrees.

The report notes increased temperature has already affected the industries across Australia losing a value of $8.8 billion which is expected to increase.
