Hurricane Beryl lashes Texas After landing in recent days on the coast of Texas near Matagorda the category one hurricane "Beryl" subsequently lost power and even if now downgraded to a tropical storm it would have caused at least one victim and left between one and two million homes and businesses without electricity supply; a large port for the export of crude oil is closed, then the strong vortex continues its path towards Louisiana. As for hurricanes the researchers argue that if they continue to pump climate-changing gases into the atmosphere they are changing and in addition to gaining strength quickly, it may be necessary to add category six, perhaps with more unpredictable behavior; for example Beryl initially went from category one to four in one day, then later he also reached five. e-mail:       info@salutary.eu Tel:   +39 338 1809310        Date:    Jul 09, 2024              n°:   5691       Record heat for the month of June The latest data collected on global average temperatures lead researchers to speculate that with an estimate of about ninety-five percent, 2024 could surpass 2023 as the hottest year ever since surface temperatures began to be recorded. The consequences on the planet of this warming in the first six months of the year already have been judged disastrous even if it must be considered that the global current "El Nino" could initially play a role by raising temperatures, but now we are in a neutral phase waiting to enter the climatic conditions influenced by the "Nina" and therefore in theory perhaps cooler. Greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels will continue to influence data for decades and promises made by major polluters have been largely disregarded. e-mail:       info@salutary.eu Tel:   +39 338 1809310          Date:    Jul 08, 2024                         n°:   5690       Torrential rains in northeast India Four people have been killed in north-east India due to torrential rainfall with about one million people affected by flooding; monsoon rains are responsible for large-scale destruction and consequent casualties every year, but climate change is increasing the number of extreme events (last week in Nepal at least fourteen people lost their lives due to heavy rains and consequent landslides, floods, lightning).

Strong winds fuel the flames in large areas near the Arctic and indigenous communities have also received evacuation orders and for some populations it is the second time in recent months that they have had to leave their homes.

The researchers say that although heavy monsoon rains are typical at this time in India, climate change makes them more frequent and violent.

Red alert also in Beijing for any geological risks such as landslides caused by the wave of bad weather.

The effects of the global current "El Nino" with temperatures generally higher on average and a tendency to drought with drier vegetation could aggravate the situation.

Controversy over the lack of firefighting aircraft to deal with the fires then there are other emergencies in Sicily such as areas without drinking water supply near Palermo that would require decisive interventions.

Firefighters struggling to cope with fires that have lasted for days favored by wind and rather dry vegetation say that many outbreaks are uncontrollable (..fires with evacuations also in Corfu).

The authorities invite workers and students to stay at home and then the vehicles spray water in order to contain the temperatures in the areas affected by temperature peaks that make even the characteristic reddish rocks that surround the area hot places and that attract tourists; then the country is also affected by a strong cyclonic vortex that is heading towards Vietnam. e-mail:       info@salutary.eu Tel:   +39 338 1809310          Date:    Jul 18, 2023                         n°:   5391       Heat waves in Europe, United States and China High temperatures have been recorded in several European countries such as Greece, Italy, France, Germany, Spain and Poland and according to weather forecasts heat records are expected with peaks of up to forty-eight degrees in inland areas of islands such as Sicily and Sardinia, perhaps among the highest ever recorded in Europe. In Morocco in North Africa there is talk of red alert, then in the United States some states such as Texas, California, Nevada and especially Arizona the population is put to stress by temperatures that can cause serious health risks to the elderly (very high sea the temperatures monitored in the southern coasts of Florida with consequences in general on the climate and the whole ecosystem).

In the summer of 2022 it is estimated that over sixty-one thousand people lost their lives due to scorching heat waves and therefore initiatives should be planned to mitigate the effects on the territory of the heatwave.

There are many more lightning strikes that trigger fires due to human-caused climate change as well as an abnormal overheating that favors them and it is not excluded that they could continue for weeks or perhaps until the end of the fire season.

As for the northwest the smoke coming from the uncontrollable wildfires of vegetation in Canada (which also reaches Portugal and Spain crossing the ocean such is the intensity of the phenomenon) is making poor air quality with New York and Philadelphia immersed in soot and unhealthy air.

For example, it is estimated that over seventy-seven percent of these emissions could result from the decomposition of organic matter of aquatic plants carried out by microbes in the seabed that then release methane bubbles that go back to the surface. The higher temperatures tend to promote the growth of aquatic plants and this means that in the lakes there will be more and more organic material to decompose forming in this way a vicious cycle that feeds itself to add to the others related to greenhouse gas emissions. e-mail:       info@salutary.eu Tel:   +39 338 1809310          Date:    May 10, 2018                         n°:   3761       Floods in Kenya and earthquake in Hawaii It would be at least six victims for cause of the floods in Kenya with thousands of people forced to abandon their homes and international organizations that describe the difficulties of the population also because of different waves of bad weather characterized by torrential rainfall that caused victims, destroyed crops and lost many livestock as well as damaging roads, superstructures and making difficult to use the resources of drinking water (with consequent health emergencies for any case of cholera).
