@ShiningScience So why is it regional and the Arctic is cooling more? And Spain changed cooler too

Experts say extreme heat is officially no longer just an environmental threat — it's a global health emergency.
According to Ian Williams, Professor of Applied Environmental Science at the University of Southampton, the heatwaves the world is currently experiencing reveal that heat is no longer a future climate risk. It is here — and it is already taking a toll.
He notes that the level of heat the planet is currently experiencing places a massive physical burden on the human body, forcing the heart and kidneys to work overtime to regulate internal temperatures.
For those with pre-existing conditions, this physiological stress can prove fatal long before heatstroke sets in, worsening chronic heart, lung, and kidney diseases. Furthermore, the threat is no longer limited to historically hot regions, as rising temperatures consistently outpace local historical averages worldwide.
The crisis extends beyond the human body, compromising the very infrastructure designed to keep us safe. Sweltering heatwaves buckle transit lines, disrupt water supplies, and overwhelm electrical grids, leading to power outages that shut down hospital services and vital cooling systems. To combat this, experts are urging a rapid overhaul of urban design, advocating for climate-resilient building materials and expanded green spaces to help cities adapt. Because the negative health impacts of extreme heat are largely preventable, proactive local planning and robust climate policies are now critical to saving lives in our increasingly warming world.

🇩🇪 That's not a joke! It's Leipzig — all tram service suspended due to the high temperatures
What happens with Germany? Who has chosen such materials?


Lord Bebo@MyLordBebo
🇩🇪 Extreme heatwave forced a shutdown of tram networks in German cities as the tracks are melting Tram services disrupted or halted in Leipzig, Heidelberg & across the Rhein-Neckar region gritting trucks spread stone dust on melting roads

@forallcurious So that means you are mot alarmed that the Arctic is cooler when this regional heat is happening?

A heatwave that was supposed to represent the year 2050 is already unfolding in France right now.
Back in 2014, French meteorologist Évelyne Dhéliat presented a hypothetical summer forecast showing what an extreme August heatwave might look like in 2050. The map highlighted temperatures in 34 French cities ranging from 79°F to 109°F.
This week, France shattered parts of that warning. According to reporting highlighted by Futurism, 19 of those 34 cities exceeded the “2050” temperatures projected in the old scenario. In some locations, actual readings hit 112.3°F, more than 20°F hotter than the hypothetical future forecast.
The World Meteorological Organization has emphasized that the 2014 map was never a strict prediction, but rather an illustrative scenario based on climate science to show what a warmer world could feel like.
Still, the comparison is sobering. France is currently gripped by an intense heatwave sweeping across Western Europe. Authorities have closed major landmarks such as the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower, and the country just recorded its hottest single day in history.

@GlobeEyeNetwork Bollox it was a car fire at Verona in Italy.

🥵 It's so hot in Poland that people are frying eggs outdoors
In Warsaw, a woman left a frying pan in the sun and, after a while, cooked an egg on it.
Poland is in the grip of an extreme heatwave, with temperatures approaching 40°C in some areas. On the bright side, you can save on electricity and cook breakfast right on your balcony.
