Climate Change Calamity on World Scale

Published August 17th, 2022 - 12:15 GMT

Climate change is affecting the whole world; water levels across the globe are seen shrinking down along with the ice bridges that can be seen melting a year after the other.

Never-stricken heat waves are affecting Europe with the highest temperatures hitting the UK weeks earlier where the heat reached over 40 C. Heat waves have also ignited wildfires that burnt dozens of acres across the world. Deaths were also reported in Europe due to the high heat.

Multiple rivers in Chile, Italy, and France have reported a decline in their water levels in recent years as some have dried completely.

Over the past two decades, the Arctic has lost about one-third of its winter sea ice volume, largely due to a decline in sea ice that persists over several years, called multiyear ice, according to a new study. The study also found sea ice is likely thinner than previous estimates. (Photo by Kerem Yucel / AFP)
