Expert warns Western Europe faces faster warming and wildfire risk

Western Europe is experiencing a rapid rise in temperatures that exceeds the global average, which increases the frequency of heat waves and doubles the risk of wildfires. In Spain, the months of June and July recorded exceptional temperatures, with forecasts reaching up to 42 degrees Celsius. As a result, wildfires have forced the evacuation of approximately 200,000 people so far this summer. The World Meteorological Organization explained that Europe has seen an increase in temperatures of about two degrees Celsius since 1976, largely attributed to climate change. Wildfires have consumed around 180,000 hectares in Spain up to the end of July, which is six times the area burned last year.
