June 2025 was the warmest ever recorded in Western Europe, as “extreme” temperatures hit Epirus in two successive waves of thermal pressure, the European Copernicus said today.

On a global scale, last month was the third warmest ever recordedbehind June 2024 (which was 0.2 ° C.Marst) and almost at the same level (–0.06 ° C) with June 2023, thus continuing for the third consecutive year to record an average temperatures unprecedented, as the planet continues to overheat due to climate change.

According to calculations by the French Agency based on Copernicus’s data, 12 countries and about 790 million inhabitants of the planet lived in the hottest June they ever met. This applies to Japan, North and South Korea, Pakistan and Tajikistan.

Temperatures were also particularly “extreme” in Europe, which is heated twice faster than the world average.

Due to climate change, global warming, “heat waves are likely to become more often, more intense and affect more people from end to Europe,” he added.

In places temperatures frequently overwhelmed 40 ° C in different countries and reached up to even their 46 ° C. in Spain and Portugal. On June 30, a new daily record was set: it was one of the warmest days ever recorded “on Old Epirus.

But these averages are nothing if compared to the so -called temperature sensationwhich measures the impact on the human body, taking into account the level of humidity and the winds. In northern Lisbon, the thermal stress index (UTCI) arrived as even reached as much as even 48 ° C.that is, at the level of “extreme thermal stress”, the Copernicus service stressed.

Tropical nights, during which the temperature does not drop below 20 ° C, puts human organisms in a hard test. In Spain, 24 were recorded, in other words 18 more than any normal June. In some areas of the Mediterranean, it was 10 to 15, against zero usually any June, he noted.

Disastrous fires in the areas of Canada and Southern Europe, deadly floods in areas of Meridian African, China and Pakistan: the consequences of climate change were dramatic all over the world last month.

In June, however, there was a slight respite after two years of breaking records in 2023 and 2024. It was an average of 1.3 ° C. pre -industrial level ‘, according to the service.

Based on the trend so far this year, 2025 is expected to be the third hottest year in history.

On a global scale, “the climate is about 1.35 to 1.4 ° C.Merger than the pre -industrial era, Ms Berges in the French Bureau was highlighted in late June, as the Observatory predicts that the 1.5 ° C dam would break at 2029.

In June 2025 there was also a marine heat in the western Mediterranean, with the surface temperature rising a lot at the beginning of the month and reaching a level of record, 27 ° C, June 30.

The record temperatures in the waters of the Mediterranean “reduce the drop in air temperature at night along the coast and increase moisture, thereby exacerbating (…) thermal stress”, according to the Copernicus Observatory.

They also have devastating effects on marine biodiversity and a serious impact on fishing and fish farming.
