Europe's heatwave hell is only going to get worse
Europe is boiling. The countries around the Mediterranean are facing soaring temperatures as an anticyclone sends temperatures through the roof. And while the mercury is expected to dive in the coming days, the continent is waking up to a harsh new reality. Climate change is here and we are not prepared for it.In this week's episode of The i Podcast we take a look at how the climate crisis is fuelling these major weather events, like the Cerberus heatwave, and find out what can be done about it. Joining us from the island of Sardinia is foreign reporter Claire Gilbody-Dickerson who has been talking to locals, tourists, and emergency service workers, struggling in the scorching heat. Then environment correspondent Daniel Capurro and science correspondent Tom Bawden gives us the details on why this heatwave is just the latest in a string of unpredictable events and what we can expect in Europe and across the world.Produced by Albert Evans, edited by Julia Webster.Music featured is by Michael Kobrin and Lexin Music - licensed via Pixabay.Check out their music here:https://pixabay.com/music/modern-classical-the-introvert-michael-kobrin-10959/https://pixabay.com/users/lexin_music-28841948/ Hosted on Acast.
