Unprecedented Heat: Global Temperatures Surge to 17.15°C, Breaking Records Again

The global temperature has reached unprecedented levels, with the European Copernicus network reporting that July 22 was the hottest day ever recorded, hitting 17.15°C. This record-breaking heat is attributed to ongoing climate change and the continued burning of fossil fuels. Experts warn that extreme weather events, including heatwaves and floods, are becoming more frequent and severe due to rising temperatures. As we enter a period of extreme heat, it is crucial to address the root causes of climate change to mitigate its impacts.
