Climate change: The place on Earth heating fastest – BBC News
Much of western Europe is under the most extreme red heat alerts – meaning there’s a potential risk to life.
France, Spain and Italy have been hardest hit by the heatwave so far.
But why is it so hot? What can you do to stay safe? And is El Nino to blame?
We answer some of your most asked questions about the heatwave sweeping Europe with our climate and health correspondents.
We’re also joined by our teams in Paris, Madrid and the south of France.

Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.
Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.
At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.
So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?
AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.

LOL. I can't believe the BBC is still pushing this climate change garbage that flies in the face of science. First it was cooling, then it was warming and when that didn't occur it was fudged into the meaningless and ridiculous term "climate change", which as anyone with an IQ over ten will tell you, is cyclical. No climate catastrophe predictions have ever come true in over five decades of fearmongery about the end of the world. NONE!!! It's total nonsense!!!

The scientist who say the climate will destroy us, are reliant on government funding and are being forced to lie. It is being used as an excuse to stop freedom of travel, of movement. They want to destroy our present democracy to replace it with fascism.

Little spoiler for you. The planet heats up and cools down in cycles. It has done since inception and before humans arrived. It will continue to heat and cool when humans are extinct. Earth will become barren for around 2 billion years then be consumed by the Sun… the end 😂. Have a fab day 😁

Can’t compare with 150 years ago. Then we had the very cold spell – the Thames froze over, the mini ice age. It’s warmed since and has been warming since the last ice age. It’s natural and positive as a warmer world is better for nature.

None of this is happening.
Arctic sea ice coverage has stayed within its historical average ever since man began tracking its coverage.
The same goes for Antarctic sea ice coverage.
Greenlands ice sheet is still 10,000 feet thick at its thickest point.
Antarctica's eastern ice sheet is still 16,000 feet thick at its thickest point.
All of the rivers in North America are raging because of record snowfall and record snowpack levels up and down the west coast of North America.
Last years hurricane season in the tropical Atlantic was within the running average of 5.6.
USGS and NASA recently released a report about land subsidence on the eastern coast of the United States.
Every beach from Miami up to Maine is sinking.
This is due to post glacial isostatic rebound.
What this means is that the continental land surface that rebounded upward when the Laurentide ice sheet depressed the interior surface is now returning to its former position.
The coastline is also experiencing weathering from ocean waves, ocean tides, and rain.
Sand is very liquid in nature.
It can be easily moved around by water running over its surface.
This same natural weathering phenomenon is occurring on the coastline of Alaska, southeast asia, and Africa.
It's all natural.

Don’t worry about it, the earth has the Beaufort Gyre which will flush such a vast amount of cold fresh water into the oceans that the resulting cooling will affect the whole globe.
Global warming/ climate change, your move.

As regards the melting of Arctic Ice, the records nearly always seem to start in 1979. Strange that, considering it was a year of record extent for Arctic Ice. Even so, data from NOAA (2022) show winter (March) ice coverage has hardly changed since '79, and that the summer (September) coverage trend had stopped declining since 2007. How inconvenient! Didn't someone predict in 2007 Arctic ice free by 2010, or 2015, or 2013, or in 5 years? Or was it in 2008 the Arctic ice sheet would melt away. Also predicted in 2008 North Pole ice free in … 2008 … or in 10 years. 2009 prediction: Arctic ice free in 2014. 2012 prediction: snow will be gone by 2020. And 2013 star prediction: Methane catastrophe in 2 years because of ice free Arctic. 2018 prediction: zero chance of permanent ice in Arctic by 2022. It's still there, and it's stopped shrinking.
If you consider global sea ice cover, it was basically flat from 1981 to 2008, rose until 2010, stayed level until 2015, dropped until 2018, and then rebounded almost all the way back to the 1990-2000 average. Nobody predicted theses changes, nor can they explain them. The changes have no relationship to the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere.
The climate crisis/emergency/apocalypse is make-believe.
Multiyear ice is an unproductive habitat as far as marine organisms are concerned: first year (seasonal) ice over continental shelves is the most productive and this is where the vast majority of polar bears, seals, fish, whales, and sea birds are found. Therefore the decline of extremely thick multiyear ice (>4 years old) could be seen as an unconcerning development with regards to the wildlife in the region, especially since 2-3 year old ice that can be used as a resting/hunting platform for seals and polar bears hasn't declined in summer since 2007. In fact, biologically, the Arctic is in good shape with all its regions showing a positive trend in primary productivity over an extended period (2003-2022). This has resulted in more food for seals, walruses, bowhead whales and polar bears, which are hence maintaining or expanding their populations.
There's no "death spiral" in the region as some people reported. In fact, there is, as I say, no evidence of any crisis/emergency. That is silly nonsense designed to scare people.

We cannot support this entire Earth with green energy, it's great but it only produces about 25% of what our needs are, without burning fossil fuels or nuclear energy we will all freeze!!! Just like Europe almost did last winter in 2022, I used to believe we could replace it to, not anymore. If we don't burn coal or have nuclear energy we will all freeze!!!!!! Stupid people!!!

Yes, we can save the earth but we need to call out all those who talk the talk but then do nothing. This is one of the main reasons I made a song and a music video about calling all the hypocrites out and saying “You Can SMC” and we should stand together and start our own revolution by doing what needs to be done to help.

They said in the 80s the sea levels would rise so the Statue of Liberty water would be up to her elbow by 2000. It’s NOT all the rich are still buying ocean front property and the beaches of Florida are the same. The elite getting rich off their fear they are pushing . Should we clean up the water and air why yes China and India you should too! Instead they fear monger more than ever!
Now they’re hair brain ideas are windmills and solar panels raping the land of rare earth mineral yet have zero ability to store this power. They say this will decrease energy prices ? They won’t do that either They sold us on plastics too” greatest invention ever “ now we have micro plastics in the water and food.
The rich pushing this so imagine…. they get richer. Has anyone addressed where all this garbage wind mills, solar panels are going to go at the end of their life cycle ? No they have not!

China is the most responsible and guilty of the climate change crises. China is the most polluted country and the main source of pollution in the world. China is doing dangerous experiments of climate manipulation to creat artificial rains which already resulted in disastrous flooding in many cities.

More garbage and misinformation from the BBC. This is the reason hundreds of thousands of people are cancelling their TV license. FACT, both the northern and southern hemisphere have been cooling for most of the last decade and the southern hemisphere is cooling the fastest. The BBC is completely biased by only reporting stories that support the opposite. This is deliberately misleading and breaks all the rules on reporting standards. I have cancelled my license this year. You should do the same.

it's impossible to spell the amount of laughter that this report brought me. News flash!!! it's called the sun and it goes through cycles. Every planet in our solar system is getting the same warming we are getting. The only way that they can scare the masses into energy slavery is to manipulate the data. Ask yourself if the Earths climate has ever been stable. You will find many warming cycles and those cooling cycles called ice ages.If it's really a climate crisis, perhaps the lizard people calling for change could park their private jets that spew out carbon at the rate of cities full of cars.))))
