The planet broke a new heat record. The month of August was confirmed as the hottest month ever since records began. This data represents another worrying milestone in the global warming trend that has been observed in recent years.
In Europe, thermometers reached historical values during this period. The average temperature recorded on the European continent in August was 20.26 degrees, a value significantly above the usual average for this time of year.
This August was classified as the fourth hottest August ever recorded. Although it was not the hottest August in absolute global terms, it contributed to a series of consecutive temperature records that have worried scientists and environmental organizations.
The recording of these new temperature highs underscores the urgency of issues related to climate change and the need for urgent measures to mitigate its effects on the planet.
