Europe is burning from the heat / Italy and France are on maximum alert

As Europe swelters in the summer heat, parts of Italy and France are on high alert. Spain and Portugal are also experiencing record temperatures.

This June, many parts of Europe faced the highest temperatures ever recorded for the summer month. Scientists say the extreme conditions were caused by a familiar weather pattern exacerbated by global warming. In some countries, schools and tourist attractions have also been closed as temperatures have become deadly.

Heat waves will occur more frequently

The world will have to live with heat waves, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said. The United Nations Weather and Climate Agency said heat waves could become more frequent and more intense.

“As a result of human-induced climate change, extreme heat is becoming more frequent, more intense. It is something we have to learn to live with,” said OBM spokeswoman Clare Nullis. The Mediterranean is also directly affected by climate change. The likelihood of heat waves has increased fivefold as a result of climate change.

Climate change increases the risk of fires

According to the UN, climate change also increases the risk of fires. This is because climate change leads to longer periods of drought and heat, which increases the risk of fires.

Experts also warn that scorching heat poses a risk to life. Experts warn that high temperatures have a strong effect on the brain and can lead to disorientation and wrong decisions, also affecting the wrong assessment of risks. Many people, due to lack of knowledge, tend to underestimate the risk of the sun and heat and ignore dangerous temperatures. /DW/
