Europe faces extreme heat

According to Rolling Stone USAscientists claim that climate change is the reason for the extreme heat wave in Europe, which in turn triggered forest fires in France.

“We know these temperatures are now possible in the UK because we are now living in a world that is already much warmer,” climate scientist Friederike Otto told Rolling Stone USA about the heat wave. “Also, it was predicted almost two weeks in advance. We knew this heat was coming.”
