Germany's 2024 Heat: Warmest Year on Record
Germany recorded its warmest year since 1881 in 2024, surpassing 2023's record, confirming the trend of rising global temperatures and the need for enhanced climate protection measures. This is supported by similar findings from the EU's Copernicus Climate Change Service, and the US's NOAA.

Heat-Related Deaths to Shift to Younger Populations by 2100
A new study published in Science Advances reveals that by 2100, heat-related deaths in Mexico could increase by 32% among those under 35, due to increased outdoor work exposure and higher activity levels; while deaths among older people would decrease. The study also shows lethal heat exposure level...

Arctic Tundra Shifts from Carbon Sink to Source, Worsening Climate Change
The Arctic, previously a carbon sink, is now emitting more carbon than it absorbs due to warming temperatures and wildfires, exacerbating global climate change; Alaskan permafrost temperatures reached their second-highest level in 2024.

La Niña Delayed: Pacific Ocean Remains Too Warm
Despite predictions, La Niña has yet to appear due to insufficient cooling in the equatorial Pacific Ocean; this follows the El Niño event which ended in June 2024, and the current neutral phase may offer more stable weather, although climate change complicates predictions.

Estudo: Calor extremo matará mais jovens que idosos até 2100
Um estudo mexicano revela que até 2100 o calor extremo causará mais mortes entre jovens (abaixo de 35 anos) do que em idosos, com um aumento projetado de 32% nas mortes relacionadas ao calor nesse grupo etário, enquanto as mortes relacionadas ao frio diminuirão quase na mesma proporção em idosos.
