YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

July is set to become the world’s hottest month on record, as fossil fuel emissions drive climate change and the increasing intensity of heat waves across the Northern Hemisphere.

The first 21 days of the month were the hottest three-week period on record, with July 6 seeing the highest ever global average temperature, according to the European Union’s Earth observation agency Copernicus.

Following the hottest ever June, that puts 2023 on course to be the warmest year. Heat waves have baked North America, Asia and Europe this summer, with a record temperature for China recorded last week and California’s Death Valley approaching the global high of 56.7C set 110 years ago. That’s threatening the health of millions, while triggering thousands of wildfires from Greece to Canada.
