UK’s Scorching May Reveals Climate Crisis
Description
Britain just shattered its May heat record, with London’s Kew Gardens hitting 35.1°C — and it’s not just uncomfortable, it’s exposing a deadly flaw in the nation’s infrastructure. Homes, hospitals, and even the Tube lack air conditioning, forcing Brits to confront a climate shift they weren’t built for. Experts warn this is the new normal, with heat-related deaths projected to soar unless urgent action is taken. A new National Heat Risk Commission is now looking to Australia and other nations for solutions, pushing for policy changes to make cooling systems standard — before the next wave of extreme heat hits.
