Warm winter. All of Europe is breaking temperature records

In early January, almost all of Europe was covered by a wave of hot air, temperature records were broken in eight countries and three separate regions.

In January, temperature records were broken not only in Kyiv, in Poland the temperature reached 19 degrees Celsius. In Spanish Bilbao, up to 25, which is ten degrees higher than the average for January 1.

Temperature records, except for Poland, were broken in the Netherlands, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Latvia, the Czech Republic, Denmark and Belarus. Regional records were recorded in Germany, France and Ukraine.

Who is in red?

Alpine ski resorts are nothing without snow: the grass is green on the slopes.

In Britain, all months except December are generally warmer than normal. In December there was a whole week of frost and snow even in southern England.

Due to the warm weather in many European countries, the demand for gas has decreased, and the price has decreased accordingly. On Wednesday, the price of a cubic meter on the London Stock Exchange for the first time since November 2021 fell below $750 per thousand cubic meters, and at the TTF hub in the Netherlands – up to $733.

Scientists believe that waves of warm or hot weather are getting stronger and longer due to human influence on the climate. Warm European winters can be beautiful and profitable, but summer heat waves kill people and destroy crops.

Global problems

Since the beginning of the industrial era, the average global temperature has risen by about 1.1°C and is continuing to rise.

According to Françoise Wimet, a climate expert at the French National Research Institute for Sustainable Development, what we see today is completely in line with the disappointing forecasts of scientists for the coming decades.

Ecologists are calling on governments around the world to redouble their efforts to avert a climate catastrophe.

But for now, many projects to curb global warming are on hold due to energy market turmoil linked to Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine.

For example, in order to curb rising energy prices, the British authorities have once again started issuing licenses to develop new oil and gas fields – despite the fact that the country has committed itself to fully abandon the use of oil, and by 2050 completely switch to renewable sources of “green” energy.
