Extreme weather hit Europe during the Easter weekend, with unusually high temperatures recorded in southern Italy, Spain, and France. Floods occurred in France, accompanied by strong southerly winds carrying Saharan dust across the Mediterranean all the way up to Germany. These phenomena are mostly strengthened by human-driven climate change. For more details, refer to #ClimaMeter. https://lnkd.in/dAnMQE8V

International agreement 100 Global Leaders are ambitious to prepare for a new pandemic and the extreme climate change that is currently taking place in the world, the impact of which is increasing global temperatures, causing sea levels to rise, increasing the number of extreme weather events such as floods, droughts and storms thereby delaying new man-made pandemics, because WHO has planned that the new virus will take place in May 2024 https://lnkd.in/gs7QqEU2 https://lnkd.in/gY6QKueM

A year's worth of rain in two days. Let me repeat: A year's worth of rain in two days You can thank neoliberalism, colonialism and government's inactions. And how is that possible? Thanks to majority of people not only accepting this, but supporting the very policies that are hindering our right to live in a liveable planet. Every plane you fly, every animal you eat, every shit you consume, every vote for neoliberal policies is an invitation for yet more and more of these apocalyptic events. ________ We are at a turning point in our history: which side do we want to be on, those who do evil or those who watch it happen? I have chosen to act for the common good: I seek to engage in discussions and reflections on the crucial issues of climate and social justice to radically transform our societies and tell a new story. React, share and comment to be part of the urgent movement that our civilization requires! 🌍✨
SHOCKING: Morocco had a YEAR’S worth of rain in just TWO DAYS, causing DEADLY floods. The climate crisis is here and the science is clear: extreme weather events driven by fossil fuels are becoming more frequent and severe across the world.

As the world grapples with the consequences of the El Niño weather pattern, Europe is bracing for potential impacts on its own climate. The shift from El Niño to La Niña, expected to occur during the upcoming summer months, could significantly change temperature and precipitation across the continent. With climate change already amplifying the effects of these natural weather patterns, experts warn that Europe may soon face more extreme weather events. #ClimateChange #GlobalHealth #Impact #ClimateChangesHealth

100 years of research helps explain our changing climate. When the ocean warms, it expands, raising sea levels and pushing water higher up shorelines, which can lead to coastal erosion. "Warmer oceans provide more energy for tropical storms, helping those storms grow stronger — and more quickly. #HurricaneMilton arrived during record-warm temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico and intensified at one of the fastest rates in recorded history." Scientists say warming oceans could lead to more El Niño Click on the following link to learn more: https://buff.ly/3U43pzS #climatechange #coastalerosion #imagovtt

Actions can't wait any longer👀👀 👨👩👦 Most people think climate change mainly means warmer temperatures.🌴 But temperature rise is only the beginning of the story. The earth is system whereby everything is connected and therefore changes in one area causes changes in other areas. 😥we are already facing diverse impacts that requires mechanisms to control; rising sea levels, flooding,🏝 melting polar ice, intense droughts, water scarcit and servere fires♨️. 👱Its time to embrace and implement scientific approaches to help the human race. #climatechangesolutions

The reality of climate change is with us. Morocco and Algeria, the other country also affected, do not normally experience flooding, because there is usually not as much rain as other regions. So, when we talk about climate change, these are the kind of consequences we foresee. If this civilisation does not change its ways, we shall surely all perish either from floods, fire and or heat, and maybe this the fire and brimstone that we read about. #TheTalkWithMerelin #sdgs #sdg9 #sustainableinfrastructure #sustainableindustry #innovation #sustainability #agenda2030 #carbonneutrality #womenempowerment #youthempowerment #inclusivedevelopment #justtransition #netzero

No one should surprised by the headline "Global heating ‘doubled’ chance of extreme rain in Europe in September" 🌧️ Researchers found global heating aggravated the four days of heavy rainfall that led to deadly floods in countries from Austria to Romania. ⛈️ The rains were made at least 7% stronger by climate change, which led to towns being hit with volumes of water that would have been half as likely to occur if humans had not heated the planet. #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #Floods https://lnkd.in/ewTkPQFj

Climate change exacerbates the frequency and severity of droughts and other extreme weather events. See how we support anticipatory action pilots that help humanitarians to get ahead of these shocks and mitigate their impact on vulnerable people: https://lnkd.in/eFUG2jMw #WorldEnvironmentDay

6moEurope experienced extreme weather over Easter weekend, with record temperatures in Italy, Spain, and France, alongside floods in France and Saharan dust reaching Germany. Human-driven climate change likely played a significant role in amplifying these events.
