A storm lashes Vietnam

There are at least nineteen victims, thirteen missing, and eighty-two injured due to the passage of the storm called "Bualoi" accompanied by tunderstorms, strong winds, storm surges (with one ship lost), floods and landslides; is speak of a trail of destruction with over one hundred thousand damaged houses or roofs blown off, with Ha Tinh province particularly affected, followed by Nghe An. Nine thousand four hundred hectares of rice crops and one thousand eight hundred hectares of aquaculture were destroyed, and many structures along the coasts were eroded. Numerous roads are impassable due to landslides, in addition to uprooted trees and heavy rainfall still affecting provinces in the north-central part of the country. To report shifting the attention to Spain, floods caused by heavy rains have been reported, sometimes in the same areas that were hit by disastrous floods last year.

Acidity in the seas above the safety level

Exceeding the safety level of acidity in the seas can weaken the ability to support life and human development itself, considering the billions of people who depend on them, at least according to a study by researchers who emphasize that acidification not only threatens fishing-related activities but also reduces the oceans' ability to absorb carbon dioxide and thus mitigate climate warming. For example the aragonite, a type of calcium carbonate, is used to build shells and protective coverings for a large number of marine creatures, and its deficiency means significant damage to life and the entire food chain. To report changing the subject but still on natural topics that the storm "Bualoi" is affecting central Vietnam, and many evacuations are being carried out as a precaution.

New increasingly challenges to protect the health

The challenges in trying to protect health are becoming increasingly demanding; in fact, in addition to the usual pollution, with recent studies showing how an individual is exposed to the harmful effects of indiscriminate fossil fuel use from conception to death, there is also the increased risk to the cardiovascular system due to inhalation of fine particulate matter released by large fires that are often consuming forests around the world, then heatwaves further worsen the situation. The latest challenge is represented by artificial intelligence, but in this last case much depends on how it will be used although even just hearing about viruses designed using machine computing capabilities for "health" purposes (in cases of antibiotic resistance) or medicines formulated with artificial intelligence to address potential threats is concerning.

China intends to reduce pollutant emissions

The Chinese authorities have reportedly stated that they want to reduce pollutant emissions with a plan to enhance electric power production capacity, using wind technologies and solar panels, by six times compared to the levels of 2020 within the next ten years in order to support domestic energy demand by over thirty percent. These initiatives seem to be perhaps planned in response to denialist attitudes regarding climate change from other major global powers (which are not very environmentally friendly), but China alone accounts for about thirty-three percent of pollutant global emissions, and some have long argued that its renewable energy supply chain is not very sustainable; moreover, the initiatives taken to reduce pollution through industrial restructuring by relocating emissions to other countries are indeed questionable.

Still bad weather in Italy with damages and inconveniences

A wave of bad weather characterized by heavy rainfall and sometimes hail has affected some regions of Italy shortly after the last extreme phenomenon that struck the peninsula. There are talks of requesting a state of emergency for the Piedmont and Liguria regions, with roads sometimes impassable. In Lombardy the province of Como has been particularly affected with for example dozens of evacuees in Brevio due to a landslide. Damages in Veneto with flooding and inundated activities, and in Piedmont hailstorms have damaged vineyards and the body of a missing tourist was found who was previously swept away by the flood of a stream at a campsite while trying to save her dog. On the island of Ischia some schools are still closed due to the recent violent downpour and in the Campania region there have been cases of flooded little towns after hours of intense rainfall.

A strong typhoon lashes the Philippines and Taiwan

After causing three deaths, five missing and forcing the evacuation of seventeen thousand five hundred people in areas north of the Philippines (with the provinces of Basco and Batanes affected by flooding and landslides), the powerful typhoon named "Ragasa" has caused fourteen deaths in Taiwan; there are reports of flooding from a lake barrier in Hualien County, with torrents of water and mud collapsing a bridge and then flooding the streets of Guangfu, carrying away cars and large objects. Recently affected in its path was Hong Kong with thirteen injuries and damage, and southern China where over a million people have been evacuated in Guangdong. To report turning the attention to Italy a heavy rainstorm accompanied by many lightning strikes has flooded the streets of Ischia, Capri, and Procida, the famous tourist islands of Campania causing disruptions in addition to school closures, while the torrents of water make travel difficult, sometimes even with cars submerged.

Bad weather with flooding in some regions in Italy

A disturbance characterized by heavy rainfall and downpours has affected some regions in Italy, with reports of a missing woman with her dog in the province of Alessandria in Piedmont region carried away by the overflowing of a stream that is a tributary of the Bormida river; then floods in Lombardy with entire neighborhoods of Milan flooded after the rapid filling of expansion basins, particularly affected by the flooding is the town of Meda where water pumps cannot even be used due to a power outage. In Liguria region some areas have been hit by heavy rains resulting in flooding, and then in Tuscany there was a waterspout in Versilia. A cold front coming from northern Europe met the much warmer air with temperatures above the average for the northern regions and the warm Mediterranean Sea favored the extreme weather phenomenon.

Risk that Mediterranean may be invaded by toxic fish

It is possible to track marine species through accurate computational models that predict the risk, for example that two species in particular—one highly toxic silver type fish and the voracious lion fish—could lead to a concerning biological invasion in areas of the Mediterranean, at least according to a study developed in collaboration with researchers in Greece, Denmark, and Turkey, which emphasizes that this method is not limited to a local scale and thus applied to the entire Mediterranean and demonstrating the reality of climate change. This is a threat that is becoming increasingly immediate and linked to sea temperature and salinity, two critical factors that monitored like a sort of figurative radar can predict where invasive species will appear. It is worth noting that recently some have reported increasingly frequent marine heatwaves with unusual durations in the Mediterranean.

Protection of marine biodiversity in the high seas

After the adhesion of Morocco and Sierra Leone, it has been possible to reach the threshold of sixty ratifications of a treaty that provides for the protection of marine biodiversity in the high seas and is expected to become law in 2026. According to environmentalists achieving these protection goals for biodiversity areas in oceans around the world going beyond the exclusive economic zones as defined by various countries is crucial for the safeguarding of marine ecosystems. It is estimated that half of the world's oxygen is produced by the oceans and is therefore essential for facing climate change thanks to an ecosystem made up of aquatic plants and marine creatures threatened by pollution, overfishing, and mineral resources on the seabed.

New estimates on recent heat victims in Europe

The high temperatures during the summer, with a series of heatwaves from Italy to Germany and France, where temperatures exceeded forty-six degrees Celsius in Spain and Portugal, may have caused sixteen thousand five hundred victims in Europe; researchers who focused on over eight hundred and fifty urban areas recorded temperatures 3.6 degrees higher from June to August due to climate change, but this represents only a third of the population so the death toll is certainly higher. With the heat the heart struggles to pump blood and the elderly sweat less with reduced ability to regulate their temperature; other studies estimate more than sixty thousand total deaths in 2022 and forty-seven thousand in 2023, emphasizing how Europe has become an example of the extreme effects of climate change with significant consequences on activities and especially in the tourist sector.
