has become more frequent in extreme weather, natural disasters caused by extreme high temperature and extreme rainfall have seriously threatened human survival.
in Europe this summer, the river is dry, the ground is cracked, the forest burning, the glacier melting, and the crops are sluggish. The terrible scene is like a nightmare in the summer night. The hot summer in the northern hemisphere may be just the beginning.
7000 Glacier is reported by the Due to the high temperature melting
. According to the DEM reported on September 3, at the high temperature of the record, some small glaciers in Swiss lost a lot of ice, forcing scientists to end some surveying HTM. L2 project, because There is no ice in the local area.
Zurich Federal Institute of Technology Swiss Glacier Monitoring Project Mattias Yu Si said: "What we currently see is worse than what we think so far. Part of the ice layer of the Corvacic Glacier in southeastern Switzerland has melted. These ice layers were formed about 7000 years ago. The measurement of the ice age is based on the results of the earlier measurement of the University of Heidelberg University in Germany.
said: "The loss of this summer is too serious." He refers to unprecedented high temperature weather. This means that due to technical reasons, further loss of the ice layer can no longer be measured.
data from , the University of Esta, Austria, shows that this year alone, the overall accumulation of glaciers located in the Earth Valley has decreased by about 5%.
"Hungry Stone" retakes out of the water surface
According to data from the European Drought Observation Station (EDO), drought this summer has affected more than 60%of European regions. Experts said that this year may be the worst year of drought in 500 years in Europe. As early as July, World Health Organization said that more than 1,700 people had died of high temperature in Spain and Portugal alone. In the future, the potential impact of high -temperature heat waves may further appear.
was in ancient Europe. Droughts were always accompanied by famine. When the bottom of the river bottom was exposed, the people in the crisis were recorded as a warning to future generations. A study by the Czech archeologist group in 2013 showed that these "hungry stones" can be found these times: 1417, 1616, 1707, 1746, 1790, 1800, 1830, 1842, 1868, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892, 1892. And 1893.
"If you see this stone again, you will cry." The warnings engraved by the "hungry stone" of a city in a city in Usesi, Northern Czech Republic are particularly famous. This summer, the drought swept to Europe, and many important river water levels declined. In this abnormal summer, European agricultural production does face tremendous pressure.
European Union Commission Science Service Institutional Joint Research Center recently reported that due to the hot and dry summer drought, the output of EU grain, sunflower and soybeans will decrease by 8%to 9%, far lower than the 5 -year average.
extreme weather may become the world's future normal
signs show that climate may be facing mutations, and extreme weather may be frequent and normalized.
"Look back, this summer is too hot; look forward, this summer may be the coolest summer." World Meteorological Organization Application Meteorological Services Director Robert Stewesky issued Warning, "If the world does not take emergency operations, extreme climate events such as high temperature drought floods may become the norm in the future." Prediction such as
is not a family. The sixth evaluation report of 's intergovernmental climate change special committee (ipcc) pointed out that Global Warm has occurred in the past 50 years at an unprecedented speed in the past 2000, and the unstable climate system has intensified. Global warming pushes the earth's ecology to a "hard limit".
National Climate Center Director Chao Qingchen analyzed that it is expected that at least 2040 will continue to warm the climate system, and the global high -temperature heat waves will tend to be normal. %Use renewable energy no longer has carbon emissions). High temperature is the most obvious type of disaster in climate change, which has a great adverse effect on agricultural production and species stability.At the same time, global warming does not mean that the colder winter will not appear, but the overall frequency will decrease. In response, people need short -term emergency measures and long -term planning.
Extreme Climate Event is on humans, including but not limited to drought, floods, mountain fire , grain crisis, energy crisis ... In this regard, we need to take action acceleration and emission reduction, fundamentally alleviate climate from the fundamental perspective crisis. Buy less clothes, use one -time tableware, take more public transport, turn off the lights ... Starting from daily small things, accumulate little by little. Don't worry about personal doing it, as Stevasky said, "The most important thing is, action."
