Europe is the fastest-warming continent and its temperatures are rising at roughly twice the global average, two top climate monitoring organizations reported Monday, warning of the consequences for human health, glacier melt and economic activity.
The U.N.'s World Meteorological Organization and the European Union’s climate agency, Copernicus, said in a joint report that the continent has the opportunity to develop targeted strategies to speed up the transition to renewable resources like wind, solar and hydroelectric power in response to the effects of climate change.
The continent generated 43% of its electricity from renewable resources last year, up from 36% the year before, the agencies say in their European State of the Climate report for last year. More energy in Europe was generated from renewables than from fossil fuels for the second year running.
When the temperature changes that notion is going to be quaint and nostalgic.
They will still be long and dark, that’s mainly planetary rotation, just not cold anymore unless the gulf stream stops when they’ll be very cold.
Verily, since it’s the gulf stream that brings in warm waters and hot air. If it doesn’t break, it’ll bring a lot of good weather.
