The Official UK Met Office Heatwave Solution “Climate Change In Action”

SEASON 7 – EPISODE 9 – The Official UK Met Office Heatwave Solution “Climate Change In Action”

Heatwaves and why we should be more alarmed than our governments want us to be.

Heatwaves or extreme weather events are increasing and alarmingly so. Research shows that climate change is making these events more and more likely. A scientific study by the Met Office into the Summer 2018 heatwave in the UK showed that the likelihood of the UK experiencing a summer as hot or hotter than 2018 is 30 times more likely to occur now than before the industrial revolution simply because of the higher concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
