🌡️🔥 The UK has already experienced 5 heatwaves this summer...

Heatwaves are becoming more frequent, more intense and lasting longer...this isn’t something we should accept as the new normal.

We need to act now to cut emissions and build a more resilient energy system for the future 🌱⚡

21.1°C in Chamonix today! 🔥🥵

A monthly record for February since at least 1880! 🌡️

Words truly fail to describe such early heatwaves, which are so out of season and detrimental to ecosystems.

🌳Urban trees keep cooling - even during record-breaking heatwaves! We show that trees maintained high transpiration, defying model predictions. Tree cooling during heat may be underestimated 🌡️💦

⚠️More than 2,700 excess deaths estimated in England and Wales during May and June heatwaves 🌡️

Climate change added between 3-4°C to maximum temperatures and is estimated to be responsible for about 42% of the deaths across both heatwaves 🧵

🌡️ Fossil fuel giants and deadly heatwaves

A new study found that emissions from major oil companies directly caused dozens of extreme heatwaves worldwide, linking corporate pollution to deadly climate events.

🌡️ June 2026, Spain: heat killed silently.

MACE recorded:

🔴 1209 deaths from extreme heat
🟠 3008 from moderate heat

Moderate heat kills more than heatwaves. Chronic, cumulative exposure flies under the radar, but not under the data.

🌡️ Deadly day-night heatwaves

A study reveals day-night heatwaves cause far higher mortality than daytime or nighttime events alone. These 'compound heatwaves' overwhelm our ability to adapt, showing the need for better warning systems.

Nonlinear exposure-response associations of daytime, nighttime, and day-night compound heatwaves with mortality amid climate change - Nature Communications
The authors use data from 28 East Asian cities to explore the shape of curves for associations between heatwaves and mortality. Compound heatwaves showed nearly linear mortality risks, while daytime a...

🌡️ The ocean has absorbed 90% of the world’s excess heat trapped as a result of human-caused greenhouse gas emissions, according to a new report - leading to a saltier, more acidic ocean, accelerated sea level rise & record marine heatwaves 🔽

Salty seas get saltier and world ocean more acidic as heatwaves bring ‘profound change’

The Netherlands is officially experiencing a heatwave. 🇳🇱🌡📈

It's the 31st heatwave since 1901.
15 of which occurred since 2000.

Implying an increase of ~300%!

And there were only 8 heatwaves during the first 75 years of the 20th century.

Its not just the UK that has seen extreme heat the last few days

From heat domes over the United States, to prolonged heatwaves across Europe

Places in the Middle East are even forecasting temperatures into the 50s this week 🌡️

How are #heatwaves changing in #Europe?

According to the European #Climate Report, 2024 saw:

By 2085, 36% of species’ current habitats on land could be exposed to multiple types of climate-driven extreme events such as heatwaves 🌡️ , fire 🔥 or floods 🌧️ if warming continues to rise into the latter half of the century.
