The extreme arctic heatwave continues…
Last week the temperature reached 38°C in Verkhoyansk, Siberia, north of the arctic circle.
And 34°C was just recorded at a latitude of 73 °N (high above the Arctic circle…) today in Russia. That is about 20-25 °C warmer than normal.
But equally worrying is the fact that our societies fail to grasp the full meaning of this.
The longer the climate crisis is being ignored or downplayed – the longer people will remain unaware. And the political inaction is allowed to continue.
