A hot summer is followed by a heated autumn in the EU, as climate measures clash with demands for cheaper energy for households and industry. ´We must wake up,´ says EU Environment Commissioner Jessika Roswall.
The El Niño weather phenomenon is in full swing and is expected to cause weather disturbances until at least February next year, according to the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO).
According to a new study, the El Niño weather phenomenon is becoming more intense as a result of climate change.
El Niño events are around 36 per cent more intense than they were before industrialisation. And this trend has accelerated over the last four decades.
From next month, fewer ships will be allowed to pass through the Panama Canal. The reason is the drought, which has been made worse by the El Niño weather phenomenon.
Scientists and government agencies are closely monitoring developments in the Pacific Ocean. A new El Niño could lead to sharply rising temperatures and global heat records in the coming year.
År 2025 blev det tredje varmaste året som registrerats. Det slår EU:s klimattjänst Copernicus fast i en ny rapport. För första gången har planetens medeltemperatur legat över 1,5 graders uppvärmning under tre sammanhängande år. En av platserna där det märks som mest är Antarktis.
More chaotic weather conditions are ahead. Last year, heatwaves caused the world's rivers to reach their lowest levels in 33 years, while other parts of the planet were hit by floods.
It is warmer than usual in the North Sea and the North Atlantic. It could be about one of the worst marine heat waves ever. If the temperatures stay the same, it can mean mass death for fish, algae, seaweed and mussels.
Get ready - the little guy is coming. The UN's call is about El Niño, a powerful weather phenomenon that can have devastating effects on an already warm planet.
