March temperature smashes 100-year global record
Average global temperature was 1.07C hotter – beating last month’s previous record increase.
The global temperature in March has shattered a century-long record and by the greatest margin yet seen for any month.
February was far above the long-term average globally, driven largely by climate change, and was described by scientists as a “shocker” and signalling “a kind of climate emergency”. But data released by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) shows that March was even hotter.
Compared with the 20th-century average, March was 1.07C hotter across the globe, according to the JMA figures, while February was 1.04C higher. The JMA measurements go back to 1891 and show that every one of the past 11 months has been the hottest ever recorded for that month.

As the planet warms many animals including mosquitoes can move further south, which means any pathogen they carry will be introduced to new regions, generally with higher human populations.

I tend to avoid all threads related to global warming, but you may be interested in this aside. I met a chap last night who runs a global warming blog http://blogs.planet3.org/author/nickstokes/ and among other things I asked him about the global warming detected on Mars. He said that it was due to dust storms.

This looks like a reasonable summary of what we know of climate change on Mars:
https://www.skepticalscience.com/global-warming-on-mars.htm
In summary of the summary, dust storms certainly affect the weather on Mars, but we know next to nothing of the climate, and what we do know does not provide evidence of climate change.
