Warming is projected to impact human health, mostly through increased intensity, frequency and duration of heat waves  . Under current socioeconomic conditions, 53-93 million more people could be exposed to high or very high heat stress in northern Mediterranean by 2050  and heat-related excess mortality could increase by more than six-fold above 3ºC GWL . In MENA countries, the mortality risk of the elderly in 2100 could be 8-20 times higher under RCP8.5 compared to 1951-2005, and still 3-7 times higher under RCP4.5 . Deaths attributable to high temperatures in the northern Mediterranean could increase by 18-20,000 in 2050  under RCP8.5  .
