🌍With around 600 million people in Africa still lacking access to electricity, building more climate-resilient energy systems is becoming as much a public health challenge as an energy one. Watch more with @africanews⤵️ africanews.com/2026/07/02/ene…

🚨Since the start of July, over 1.3 billion people across the African continent have experienced at least one day where average temperatures were made at least 5x more likely due to human-caused climate change🚨 That is nearly 85% of the population of the entire continent!

🌡️As temperatures climb, so does the demand for electricity to cool homes, businesses, and food. But many grids are aging, undermaintained, and vulnerable. ⚡Extreme heat can overheat power lines and transformers, increasing the risk of blackouts when electricity is needed most.

Heat will be an opponent on the pitch for #England v #Norway in 📍Miami. 🌡️ Mid-90° temps: 4x MORE likely by heat-trapping pollution. 🔴 Humid heat nearing FIFA's safety threshold: 100x MORE likely by that same pollution. Player performance. Player safety. Both on the line.

Although the Pacific is experiencing a historic marine heat wave — it is far from alone. Every major ocean basin across the globe is currently experiencing unusually warm sea surface temperatures driven by climate change. Read more with #ClimateCentral⤵️ climatecentral.org/climate-shift-…

The world's largest marine heat wave now covers 58 million km² of the Pacific — an area larger than North and South America combined! About 85% of it wouldn't exist without human-caused climate change.

🌀Super #TyphoonBavi rapidly intensified over exceptionally warm Pacific waters made up to 80x more likely by climate change. Before reaching Taiwan this weekend with winds as high as 130 mph, it is expected to cross ocean waters made 10–40x more likely by climate change.
