Hottest day on Earth

News summary

On July 22, 2024, the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service reported that it was the warmest day ever recorded on Earth, with Europe warming nearly twice as fast as the global average. Factors contributing to this rapid warming include the Arctic's heat and the loss of ice and snow across Central Europe. Heatwaves have led to severe warnings across Spain and southern France, with temperatures expected to exceed 40 degrees Celsius, coinciding with the ongoing Olympic Games in Paris. In Germany, the German Weather Service has issued extreme heat warnings for parts of the country, predicting temperatures over 35 degrees Celsius and urging residents to stay hydrated and cool. Researchers warn that climate change will result in more frequent and intense fire weather across Europe, necessitating better preparedness from local governments. As Europe grapples with rising temperatures, the impacts on health, agriculture, and public infrastructure are becoming increasingly evident.
