India heatwave caused by climate change. When the temperature is 37 deg. C or 100 deg. F, and the humidity is very high, the body cannot cool itself by evaporation and cannot regulate its temperature, which causes heat exhaustion, heat stroke and hyperthermia and the person will die. https://www.reuters.com/breakingviews/india-heatwave-throws-food-security-loop-2022-05-12/

The 22 year long Megadrought that has been plaguing the western US is the worst in 1200 years. It has been made much worse by climate change. << Human-caused climate change is responsible for about 42% of the soil moisture deficit since 2000, according to the study. >> https://6abc.com/worst-megadrought-in-1200-years-caused-by-climate-change-study/11564048/ US drought monitor: https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/CurrentMap/StateDroughtMonitor.aspx?west
Water vapor is a potent greenhouse gas, so as CO2 causes the atmosphere to get warmer, more water evaporates and this positive feedback loop causes a hotter atmosphere, which causes more water to evaporate. https://www.livescience.com/how-much-water-earth-atmosphere
