Europe's Extreme Summer Shatters Records as New Heatwave Arrives

Western Europe is enduring its most extreme summer ever recorded, marked by catastrophic wildfires, consecutive heatwaves, and ancient mammoth bones surfacing in dried-up rivers. According to the EU's climate service, Copernicus, both June and July have broken all previous temperature records. Now, another heatwave is sweeping across the continent, intensifying the crisis. The relentless heat has fueled devastating blazes and pushed ecosystems to their limits. As rivers shrink to historic lows, the emergence of mammoth remains highlights the unprecedented scale of the drought. With no immediate relief in sight, authorities warn that the coming weeks could bring even more severe conditions.
