The world should learn to live with the heatwaves, warned today World Meteorology Organizationa UN service, while much of Europe suffocates due to high temperatures.
“Due to human -caused climate overheating, extreme heat becomes more frequent and more intense. It’s something we should learn to live with, “OMM’s spokesman said, Claireat a press conference he gave to Geneva.
The persistent heat In southern Europe it led to record temperatures in Spain, France and the Mediterranean in general, while in Portugal an impressive “rolling cloud” was formed at sea.
Although, traditionally, July is the warmest month of the year in the northern northern north, Nalis explained that such “warm episodes” are so early in the summer. As he said, Western Europe suffocates due to a strong anti -circular trapping over this area “Aeria masses coming from North Africa”.
The “urban thermal islands” make the situation difficult in cities due to the absence of vegetation that would absorb heat and construction (roads, buildings) that reflect it.
The heatwaves are “silent killers,” Nalis said. In official statistics the number of victims due to the heat is often underestimated. “It is important to emphasize that the deaths of heat can be avoided: we have knowledge, we have the tools to save lives,” he said.
