The recent launch of The Shepparton Irrigation Region Land and Water Management Plan for 2050 was a wonderful opportunity to record some impressive speakers, but put to the test, I failed - what I recorded was less than adequate. The event, at Girgarre's Gargarro Botanic Garden Cafe, was attended by more than 100 people and was organized by the "Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority". The guest speaker was the foundation executive officer of Goulburn-Murray Water, Denis Flett. According to the Melbourne Age, the Liberal-endorsed candidate, Mariam Riza (pictured) to be lord mayor of Melbourne is promising to get more cars into the CBD by ripping up the city's bike lanes, claiming they cause traffic bottlenecks - "Rip up the bike lanes: Liberals launch Melbourne mayoral bid"; "No bike lanes in the city says candidate for Melbourne Council Mariam Riza"; "Pacific in peril: UN urges Australia to block new coal and gas projects"; "How did a sudden reduction in shipping pollution inadvertently stoke global warming?"; "What Indonesia's next climate pledge could do for its people, environment and economy – The Briefing Room"; The book co-authored by Phillip Sutton - "Climate Code Red: the Case for Emergency Action"; "Campaigners sue EU over ‘grossly inadequate' 2030 climate targets"; "Why is climate change causing ‘record-shattering' extreme heat?"; "More Than 40% of World's Electricity Came From Zero-Carbon Sources in 2023"; "‘These ideas are incredibly popular': what is degrowth and can it save the planet?"; "Sydney records hottest August day in seven years amid high fire danger from warm, windy weather"; "‘Working here is hell': latest death of farm worker in 40C heat shocks Italy"; "‘Everything, everywhere, all at once': Australia's survival in a warmer world will be a mammoth multi-tasking effort"; "Power-hungry AI data centers are raising electric bills and blackout risk"; "‘The world needs your leadership', Guterres tells Pacific Islands Forum"; "How much more water and power does AI computing demand?

As the 17th summer Paralympic Games start in Paris, some of Great Britain's athletes have been going the extra mile when it comes to training by working out in a heat chamber set to 40C. But it's about more than just heat. Athletes with spinal cord injuries or limb differences don't have the same surface area through which to sweat, so the chamber is also about seeing how their bodies adapt and recover. After every session, the sweat hoover is brought out… Plus, Canadian filmmaker and activist, Kyla Harris, discusses her new BBC comedy, We Might Regret This. It follows Freya (played by Kyla) as she attempts to navigate moving to London and a romance with a silver fox lawyer. What could possibly go wrong…? Just a heads up, there is some stronger language than usual in this episode.

Here's what Green Infill looks like! Built to the super energy efficient Passive House standard this 16-unit townhouse style infill project replaced two underutilized single-family homes in Edmonton, Alberta. The homes require just 10% of the heating energy of a regular home, and have no natural gas or bills. We take a tour of this amazing project with developers David and Melissa Campbell of Homestretch, a multifamily developer. The project utilized an unique EPS wall system with embedded structural steel, an ICF foundation and Air Source Heat Pumps which required no backup heat in 10 of the 16 units in a City where temperatures reached -40C last year. The Coup de Gras is the homes are powered mostly by solar electricity and 10 of the 16 units are net-zero. GreenEnergyFutures.ca CKUA.com Podcast See blog at GreenEnergyFutures.ca

O aumento das áreas da Amazônia ameaçadas de atingir o "ponto de não retorno" de degradação preocupa cada vez mais a comunidade científica – mas ao redor do mundo, outras florestas também enfrentam condições de sobrevivência preocupantes. Na França, a mortalidade subiu 80% nos últimos 10 anos, segundo o último relatório nacional sobre o tema. Lúcia Müzell, da RFI Brasil em ParisMas o que leva uma floresta a morrer? “Tem as razões bióticas, biológicas, devido a doenças, insetos, fungos, que podem deixar as árvores doentes e torná-las empobrecidas, antes de morrerem. E temos as razões físicas, em especial o clima, que influencia o crescimento das árvores, o desenvolvimento delas. O clima pode ser muito nefasto e levá-las à morte”, resume a especialista em cobertura florestal Nathalie Derrière, chefe do Departamento de Resultados do Inventário do Instituto Nacional de Informação Geográfica e Florestal (IGN), autor do estudo.O papel das mudanças climáticas neste processo ainda é estudado pela ciência – hoje, não é possível afirmar que elas são as únicas responsáveis pelo maior adoecimento e morte das árvores verificados no país nos últimos 5 a 10 anos.As florestas europeias são, em sua maioria, temperadas, e a variedade de tipos de clima no continente é grande, podendo ser montanhoso, atlântico, mediterrâneo, continental ou até polar. Mas, de forma geral, o fenômeno de perda das florestas aumenta e se acelera, salienta Derrière.“Eu diria que, na Europa, nós estamos todos confrontados às mesmas problemáticas, embora com as especificidades locais, afinal as nossas florestas não são completamente iguais. Mas sim, florestas podem morrer, até quando nós cuidamos delas, como tem sido o caso aqui. Nós as preservamos, a superfície florestal tem aumentado, mas mesmo assim, vemos que elas estão empobrecendo”, explica. “Nem todo mundo é capaz de perceber isso: às vezes, temos a impressão de estarmos diante de uma árvore bem viva, porém por dentro ela está doente. Precisa ser como um médico de árvores para saber.”Sobrevivência em condições climáticas anormaisEm regiões como o noroeste francês, por exemplo, a cobertura florestal disparou em 150 anos, graças à diminuição da pressão agrícola e ao êxodo rural. Ao mesmo tempo, no centro e leste do país, a repetição de verões mais quentes e secos, além de invernos também secos, têm prejudicado o crescimento das árvores em comparação com os registros a partir de 1850, de quando datam os primeiros dados do IGN. Com 31% do território ocupado por florestas, a França hoje tem a quarta maior cobertura da Europa.“As árvores no sul da França estão acostumadas a ter o calor no verão há muito tempo. A variação das temperaturas não foi tão forte quanto ocorreu no norte, onde as árvores não estão acostumadas a ter verões secos e com temperaturas acima de 40C”, disse a especialista francesa. “Foi isso que aconteceu nos últimos anos e, geneticamente, elas não estavam prontas e não puderam se adaptar a isso. É por isso que foi lá que tivemos mais estragos.”A especialista também explica que, ao ampliar os fluxos do comércio internacional, a globalização trouxe novas doenças para as florestas, que chegam pela madeira e as plantas importadas de outros continentes. “Contra o clima, não podemos fazer muito. Mas contra as doenças, sim, e tentamos limitar a entrada delas no nosso território”, indica.Ponto de não retorno da AmazôniaEmbora o contexto seja bem diferente, um processo semelhante ameaça a Amazônia, floresta tropical úmida cuja capacidade de resiliência está sendo testada pelas mudanças do clima e a degradação provocada pelo desmatamento. No último estudo sobre o tema, publicado na respeitada revista científica Nature, os pesquisadores Bernardo Flores e Marina Hirota, da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC), estimaram que entre 10% e 47% do bioma pode não resistir e se converter em outros tipos de ecossistemas nos próximos 25 anos. É o chamado de ponto de não retorno da floresta.“Podemos fazer uma analogia com como as pessoas morrem: de doenças, de velhice, de várias formas. Numa floresta como a Amazônia, que é quase um universo por si só, a gente pode pensar que cada indivíduo dela tem uma estratégia de vida e, dependendo do estresse que ela sofre, ou das doenças que ela pega, ela morre ou não”, indica Hirota.“Durante milhões de anos, no passado, a Amazônia se sustentou porque as mudanças não eram tão aceleradas como agora. Se nenhuma mudança nesse quadro acontecer, elas só vão se acelerar mais, de modo que até 2050, uma parte substancial da Amazônia talvez não consiga se adaptar a essas novas condições”, adverte.  A biodiversidade grande é um dos fatores que fortalecem a floresta e aumenta a sua resistência diante das condições mais adversas. Mas estudos em curso têm identificado que a diversidade de espécies de árvores está menor do que já foi, inclusive em áreas de mata fechada. Foi assim que, ao longo dos séculos, as florestas se empobreceram na Europa.“Eu acho que de uma forma geral, esses ecossistemas florestais caminham para uma coisa semelhante ao que aconteceu na Europa – embora a diversidade seja reconhecidamente maior aqui, mas o caminho de empobrecimento pode ser o mesmo”, disse Hirota. “Esse é um fim que a gente poderia esperar para cá.”

This is episode 7 and I'm covering the first week of January 1940. The Russian invasion of Finland has stalled as their mechanised units find the defenders extremely motivated, and the use of various innovations such as the Molotov cocktail and the Motti attack system have stymied Moscow's grand Red Army. Instead of flooding over the border and seizing Finland, the Russians have already lost thousands of men and they've been stopped dead in their tracks both in the crucial Karelian Isthmus battlefront, and further north of Lake Ladoga around Suomussalmi. They've also come to a frozen halt in the far north, near the Arctic Sea as -40C temperatures stun Russian troops. So it is with Suoussalmi we start, where the Soviet 44th Division was to face imminent destruction. Colonel Hjalmar Siilalsvuo who commanded the Finnish 9th Division Regiment with the code name JR-27 was facing the Russian 44th Division led by Alexei Ivanovich Vinogradov. Siilasvuo was a veteran of the World War One Jaeger Battalion, the son of a newspaper editor, he was also going to become known as one of the Finns master tacticians. Vinogradov on the other hand was not a master tactician as you'll hear. Siilasvuo's intention was to ambush the 44th, as it approached Suomussalmi along the main road from Raate, then to break it into pockets, isolate each and destroy them one-by-one. This was the Motte system, the chopping up of bundles of firewood. Two task forces were ready by New years eve and moved into position along the ice road the Finns cut in secret to the south of the main Raate to Suomussalmi route. One of these task forces was led by Major Kari, the other by Colonel Fagernas. Kari took up his position near a town called Makala, and FAgernas near Heikkila. A third raiding detachment was also on the move, traversing a tiny wagon track near Raate, stopping at the village of Vanka. The Finns had already destroyed the Russian 163rd Division on the Juntusranta road as the Red Army tried to flee back to their homeland — leaving 5 000 bodies littering the snow covered road. That was a sign of things to come as you're going to hear. Desmond Latham blog

In August 2003 Europe was hit by the hottest heatwave for hundreds of years. Tens of thousands of people died. Not built to withstand two weeks of extreme heat, Paris turned into a death trap for its most vulnerable citizens. The temperature reached 40C. Many elderly people died in their apartments alone. The government was criticised for its handling of the crisis. The head of the national health authority resigned shortly after the end of the heatwave. Emergency doctor, Patrick Pelloux, who was working at St Antoine Hospital in Paris, tells George Crafer what he encountered. (Photo: Paris looking hot. Credit: Getty Images)

Reports on heatwaves across the globe have dominated our newsfeeds over the last few weeks, with temperatures said to have soared over the 40C mark in many parts of Europe. But across social media, not everyone is buying it. A trickle of scepticism swelled to a tidal surge, with people questioning whether temperatures are being hyped up by the wider media to drive fear and scare-monger. In this programme, we unpick allegations made about how these temperatures are recorded - and if they are accurate. We hear from Samantha Burgess at the Copernicus Climate Change Service; Alessandro Delitala from the Sardinia Environmental Protection Agency; and Sean Buchan from Climate Action Against Disinformation.

Two more Greek islands, Evia and Corfu, are evacuating travellers as wildfires sweep the region for the sixth day. Over 19,000 people have already been evacuated from Rhodes, 16,000 by land and 3,000 by sea, with no casualties. The Greek Ministry of Climate Change and Civil Protection has described it as the largest evacuation from a wildfire in the country”. UK correspondent Gavin Grey says the breeze is fanning the flames and causing the temperature to soar above 40C. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Temperatures continued to reach extreme highs across many parts of the northern hemisphere on Monday, with the mercury in parts of Italy poised to hit 45C on Tuesday and wildfires raging in Greece and Spain signalling the latest fierce warning of the effects of the climate crisis.本周一（7月17日）北半球许多地区延续极端高温天气，意大利部分地区周二或将达到45摄氏度的高温，与此同时，希腊和西班牙山火肆虐再次警告人们气候危机已经来临。In Italy, where temperatures later in the week could push close to the European record of 48.8C, set in the Sicilian town of Floridia in August 2021, Italians were warned to brace themselves for “the most intense heatwave of the summer and also one of the most intense of all time”.意大利本周接下来几天的气温可能会逼近2021年8月西西里岛弗洛里迪亚镇创下的欧洲最高温纪录48.8摄氏度，意大利警告民众做好准备应对“今夏最强热浪也是史上最强高温天气”。As heatwaves engulfed the globe, temperatures in California's Death Valley, often among the hottest places on Earth, approached a world record on Sunday after reaching 53.3C.在热浪席卷全球的同时，上周日（7月16日）美国加州死亡谷的气温也达到了53.3摄氏度，逼近世界最高温纪录。死亡谷是地球上最热的地方之一。In a stark warning to world leaders earlier on Monday, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the director general of the World Health Organization, wrote on Twitter: “In many parts of the world, today is predicted to be the hottest day on record. And these records have already been broken a few times this year. Heatwaves put our health and lives at risk. The #ClimateCrisis is not a warning. It's happening. I urge world leaders to act now.”本周一世界卫生组织总干事谭德塞在推特上向世界领导人发出严正警告：“在世界上的许多地区，今天将会是有史以来最热的一天。今年以来高温纪录已经被打破多次。热浪让我们的健康和生命陷入了危险境地。#气候危机不是警告，它正在发生。我强烈要求世界领导人立即采取行动。”Italy's health ministry said on Monday that 23 Italian cities, including Rome, Florence, Bologna, Bari, Catania, Cagliari, Palermo and Turin, would be on “red alert” by Wednesday, a measure that means the heat is so intense, it poses a threat to the health of the entire population, not just children and elderly people.意大利卫生部长周一宣布，包括罗马、佛罗伦萨、博洛尼亚、巴里、卡塔尼亚、卡利亚里、巴勒莫、都灵在内的23个意大利城市周三前将发布“高温红色预警”，这意味着将出现超高温天气，对所有人口（不只是老人和小孩）的健康都会造成威胁。Temperatures in Rome, which is packed with tourists, are poised to climb to 42C or 43C on Tuesday.游客扎堆的罗马本周二气温预计将达到42或43摄氏度。"This is exceptional heat,” said Carlo Cacciamani, the chief of Italy's national meteorological and climatology agency. “We are expecting days of above 40C and this is already a strong anomaly. This type of situation is occurring more frequently than it did in the past.”意大利气象局局长卡洛·卡恰马尼表示：“这是极端高温天气。未来几天气温都将超过40摄氏度，这已经很反常了。这种反常天气比以往更频繁了。”Meanwhile, wildfires raging close to seaside resorts south of Athens have destroyed untold numbers of homes and cars.与此同时，希腊雅典南部海边度假胜地附近肆虐的山火已经烧毁了数不清的房屋和车辆。In Spain, a wildfire that started on Saturday on the Canary island of La Palma continued to burn out of control on Monday, although authorities said weaker winds and cooler temperatures in the area were aiding the firefighters' efforts. The blaze has burned 4,600 hectares (11,300 acres) of mostly woody hill land and 20 houses and buildings.在西班牙，上周六在加那利群岛中的拉帕尔马岛上爆发的山火本周一火势仍在蔓延，难以控制。当地政府部门表示，该地区较弱的风力和较低的气温对消防员的灭火工作有所助力。大火已经烧毁了4600公顷土地，大部分为山林地区，还烧毁了20座房屋和建筑。Spokesperson Rubén del Campo of Spain's Aemet weather agency said an anticyclone was pushing a hot mass of air from Africa towards Spain and other Mediterranean countries. The agency predicts that with the heat and dry air, the risk of wildfires will soar.西班牙国家气象局发言人鲁本·德尔·坎波称，反气旋正在将一团热空气从非洲吹向西班牙和其他地中海国家。气象局预测，在高温和干燥天气下，山火风险将会大增。Research published last week said there were 61,672 heat-related deaths last summer, the hottest recorded in Europe. The mortality rate was highest in Italy, Greece, Spain and Portugal. A road worker died of a heat-related illness in Milan last week.上周发布的调查报告称，去年夏天是欧洲有史以来最热的夏天，因高温引发的死亡人数达到了61672人。意大利、希腊、西班牙和葡萄牙的死亡率最高。上周米兰有一名道路工人因高温导致的疾病而死亡。Heatwave英/ˈhiːtweɪv/美/ˈhiːtweɪv/n.热浪；奇热时期Crisis英/ˈkraɪsɪs/ 美/ˈkraɪsɪs/n.危机

El golpe de calor en perros puede ser mortal! Este evento se ve sobre todo en perros y esto es debido a que, a diferencia de los humanos, los perros NO sudan, su forma de regular su temperatura es por medio del jadeo principalmente y esta muchas veces no es suficiente para equilibrar las altas temperaturas del ambiente. Situaciones como dejar al perro en el carro con las ventanas cerradas o sacarlo a caminar al medio día pueden poner en riesgo la vida del animal. Hoy hablamos con el Dr. Jose Pablo Campos sobre consideraciones a tomar cuando hace mucho calor (como últimamente que hemos estado experimentando temperaturas de hasta 40C) y que podemos hacer en el caso que a nuestro perro le esté dando un golpe de calor.El Dr. Jose Pablo Campos es Médico Veterinario con un posgrado en medicina interna y énfasis en felinos.

Este episodio especial reúne lo más destacado de la serie en un viaje desde el Ártico hasta la Antártida. Comenzamos en el Océano Ártico congelado. Es el final del invierno, y cuando vuelve el sol, dos osos polares se encuentran en el hielo. Generalmente animales solitarios, estos dos osos jóvenes parecen abiertos a la amistad, y juntos disfrutan de varias horas jugando juntos, aparentemente bailando sobre hielo. En la costa de Groenlandia, el hielo del Ártico tiene un propósito muy importante: es un criadero de crías de foca arpa. Las focas arpa pasan solo 12 días con su madre, bebiendo su leche y aprendiendo la lección más importante de su vida: cómo nadar. Al sur del Océano Ártico se encuentran vastas tierras heladas de bosques cubiertos de nieve y una vasta tundra abierta que rodea el globo. Las temperaturas aquí pueden caer a -40C, y las condiciones son tan extremas que muchos animales tienen que hacer todo lo posible para sobrevivir. Aquí nos encontramos con una súper manada de lobos: 25 fuertes, una de las más grandes jamás registradas. Deben trabajar juntos para acabar con la única presa sustancial disponible para ellos en esta época del año, el bisonte americano. Mientras que los lobos dependen de la seguridad en número en estos mundos fríos y hostiles, en la fría estepa de gran altitud de Mongolia, un gato de Pallas se enfrenta solo a la vida. Puede que tenga el pelaje más denso de todos los gatos del mundo, pero también tiene las patas más cortas, lo que hace que la caza de presas en la nieve sea un desafío. Los mundos congelados se encuentran en todos los continentes de la Tierra, gracias a nuestras montañas. Cuanto más asciendes en estos mundos fríos de gran altitud, más impredecibles se vuelven. Las águilas reales viven en las montañas todo el año, sobreviviendo con presas tanto vivas como muertas. En primavera, cuando las gamuzas vecinas tienen crías, es un momento oportuno para que las águilas críen a sus polluelos. Cazan en tándem, uno dispersando a la manada y el otro abalanzándose sobre la captura. Pero a medida que crecen las crías de gamuza, las condiciones se vuelven más desafiantes hasta que, en otoño, un par de águilas reales deciden cazar presas mucho más grandes que ellas. La gran altitud permite que el frío gobierne en los lugares más improbables, como el Monte Kenia, cerca del ecuador en África. Aquí, una madre camaleón debe refugiarse durante la noche mientras las temperaturas caen en picado, pero durante el día debe correr para alimentarse y reproducirse. En el extremo sur, llegamos al lugar más frío de la Tierra: la Antártida, todo un continente cubierto de hielo. Incluso en verano, sus aguas están llenas de millones de témpanos de hielo, el lugar perfecto para que las focas de Weddell se acerquen después de una noche de alimentación. Pero ellos no están solos. Con la estrategia de caza más sofisticada de cualquier animal, una manada de orcas tiene una forma ingeniosa de atrapar comida que descansa sobre el hielo. Nuestro viaje termina en el invierno más frío y oscuro de la Tierra, cuando los polluelos de pingüino emperador se enfrentan a una de las crianzas más duras del planeta.

Quality and reliability are a big deal when designing PCB for assembly. Our guest Tony Lentz, Chemist and Field Applications Engineer at FCT Solder will bring us to the PCB manufacturing space while tackling solder beyond basic thermodynamics and composition. Listen or watch through the end. This is a great opportunity for PCB designers to learn about soldering products that are used for printed circuit board assembly. Episode Highlights: Introduction to Tony Lentz, his background, and role as a Chemist and Field Applications Engineer at FCT Solder Tony talks about how they work with their clients to achieve best quality when manufacturing their PCBs Diving into the chemistry side of things, Tony tackles about how the blending of different metal alloys, additives, and different inter-metallics to that solder joint composition, the pads, and the components can affect the overall reliability of the PCB With the automotive industry's growing electronic demands, thermal testing cycles are expanding aggressively. Recently between negative 40C to 175 C! Tony briefly explains the different worlds involving PCB manufacturing and assembly: solder company, plating company, components manufacturing, board manufacturing, assembly and the list goes on What is tombstoning? Head on pillow on a BGA is another difficult defect to get rid of, Tony explains what can cause this problem Expert Tip: A rule of thumb for large thermal pads is to cut it down somewhere between 60 and 80% of the total area covered with solder paste and then break that deposit up with some window pane type openings going through it Are hybrid solder reliable? The stability of solder alloys can differ based on the different kinds of metals, components and PCB surface finish

Violent g-force, cockpit temperatures over 40C, and the constant threat of a crash: Formula 1 drivers are under intense physical pressure on the track. But what happens when emotional pressures boil over? At the Hungarian Grand Prix in August, McLaren is about to find out…and how. An extraordinary incident in the pitstop seems to suggest Fernando Alonso is playing tricks on Lewis Hamilton - but as is often the case in Formula 1 things are not always as they seem. Tensions boil over, culminating in a season-changing ultimatum for Ron Dennis.

One hundred and fourteen years ago, hundreds of reindeer and a few dozen humans witnessed a massive explosion in Siberia, near the Stony Tunguska River. At the epicenter, there was little evidence of the blast's origin except for flattening 500,000 acres of uninhabited forest, scorching the land, and creating “glowing clouds” and shock waves that were detected around the world.SOURCEShttps://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2008/30jun_tunguskahttps://earthsky.org/space/what-is-the-tunguska-explosion/https://teslauniverse.com/nikola-tesla/articles/death-ray-nikola-tesla#:~:text=(Emphasis%20added.),cause%20of%20the%20Tunguska%20event.https://www.nasa.gov/feature/five-years-after-the-chelyabinsk-meteor-nasa-leads-efforts-in-planetary-defensehttps://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=100524https://www.nasa.gov/content/goddard/around-the-world-in-4-days-nasa-tracks-chelyabinsk-meteor-plume/https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1993Natur.361...40C/abstracthttps://www.popsci.com/science/article/2013-02/best-russian-meteorite-conspiracy-theories/https://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1978QJRAS..19..282Whttps://as.tufts.edu/physics

It's an unfamiliar feeling for most New Zealanders who are battling endless rain, soggy ground and freezing temperatures. On the opposite side of the globe, our Northern neigbours are feeling the heat. The sweltering temperatures and dry conditions have caused droughts, dropping lake levels and wildfires. Portugal, Spain and France have seen temperatures rise well above 40C. Correspondent Rosie Birchard spoke to Susie Ferguson from Brussels.

The recent record high temperatures in the UK has brought climate change back into the headlines. Seasoned climatologists who knew we'd one day break through the 40C barrier have spoken about being stunned to see it happen so soon. Here at Highclere we're always thinking about what we can do to protect our fragile planet.  With that in mind my guest this month is very much on topic. Rod Rougelot is a good friend who has spent decades working in recycling and sustainability. I found our conversation both interesting and thought provoking - I hope you do too.

Europe was this week hit by an extreme heatwave exacerbating drought conditions and sparking wildfires in France, Spain, Italy, Greece and Portugal. The UK also broke its record temperature exceeding 40C. All this just weeks after flooding caused widespread disruption in Sydney, Australia. Scientists agree that reducing greenhouse gas emissions is key to limiting the severity of climate change. But the planet has already warmed by 1.1C above pre-industrial levels and temperatures are expected to continue rising. More than half of the world's population live in cities and that figure is expected to rise to 68% by 2050. Extreme heat, droughts, wildfires, storm surges and flooding - both inland and along coastlines - will increasingly cause damage and deaths. So, how can we make cities more resilient to the inevitable impacts of a warming planet? What obstacles are preventing greater action? And will the rich world protect itself while poorer communities are left to fend for themselves? Ritula Shah is joined by a panel of expert guests. Producers: Paul Schuster and Zak Brophy.

Temperatures have exceeded 40C for the first time ever in the UK. The London fire bridgade has declared a 'major incident' with multiple fires across the city. Fields and buildings are on fire in East London and there is a wildfire in Croydon in south London. In Wellingdon in east London a wild fire has destroyed at least seven homes after sweeping through fields. London correspondent Ellie Jay spoke to Corin Dann.

As the UK sweltered in a record-breaking heatwave this week, schools closed, runways melted and train tracks buckled. And on the day the country recorded a temperature above 40C for the first time, fires destroyed homes and buildings across Greater London. What more will need to be done so the country's infrastructure can cope in future heatwaves? On the Sky News Daily with Niall Paterson, our science correspondent Thomas Moore outlines how climate change will make our summers hotter, Kevin Groves, chief spokesperson for Network Rail, explains how the trains and tracks coped in the heat, and Stephen Arundell, vice-chair of the Emergency Planning Society, talks about how we should think about extreme weather events in future.

In the UK, temperatures are expected to hit 40C for the first time since records began. The Government there has declared the first ever red warning for heat, meaning there is a danger to life and a threat to major travel disruption. The UK's Met Office reported Monday was the hottest day of 2022 for the country so far, after temperatures hit 38.1C in Suffolk. Flights were halted at two airports after the heat effectively melted the runway, and some hospitals had to cancel surgeries because operating theatres were too hot. London correspondent Olly Barratt spoke to Corin Dann.

Monday 18th July - Top stories include: A heat warning is in effect in the UK, with temperatures possibly reaching 40C. Schools must “assess and balance” the risk of potential strip searches to pupils' wellbeing before calling the police. Two-thirds of school or trust governing boards have at least one vacancy as the number of empty posts hits a six-year high.

We talk to Rich Preston from BBC World in London where they're waking up to what the tabloids are calling Meltdown Monday and Blowtorch Britain as a red alert heatwave is set to send temperatures beyond 40C 

A national emergency is declared as the UK faces a record-breaking heatwave. The Sunday Times health editor Shaun Lintern and rail expert Anna-Jane Hunter assess how the NHS and railways will cope if temperatures reach 40C next week. And Adam discusses the US Capitol riot hearings with the BBC's Anthony Zurcher and Alex Holder, director of Unprecedented. The documentary about President Trump has been used as evidence by the House of Representatives committee investigating what happened that day. This episode of Newscast was made by Tim Walklate, with Phil Marzouk and Miranda Slade. The technical producer was Emma Crowe. The assistant editor was Alison Gee.

Britain is baking right now - and for the first time in our history 40C heat is projected to hit these shores.It's not a definite but even the sheer possibility has got meteorologists hot under the collar.So what's the impact of that kind of blistering heat? What measures are being taken to protect people? And what can you do to cope?ITV Weather presenter Lucy Verasamy tells Faye Barker what you need to know…

In today's episode, 94 per cent believe corruption in Cyprus is widespread, with political parties and the health care system seen as particularly vulnerable to abusing their power, according to a Eurobarometer survey published yesterday. Elsewhere, the health minister and epidemiologists decided not to impose tighter measures despite the increase in Covid-19 cases and hospitalisations. In other news, temperatures will hit 40C inland today, the met office said as it issued a yellow alert – the second in as many days – for extreme hot weather. All this and more in the Cyprus Beat briefing brought to you by the Cyprus Mail.

A severe heatwave that is sweeping through large swathes of India has pushed temperatures above 45 degrees Celsius in several places in north and central India.  Heatwaves have caused 24,223 deaths from 1992 to 2015 across the country, as per official records. The India Meteorological Department qualitatively describes heatwave as a condition of air temperature which becomes fatal to the human body when exposed. Quantitatively, it is defined based on the temperature thresholds over a region in terms of actual temperature or its departure from normal. A heatwave is considered if the maximum temperature of an IMD weather station reaches at least 40C or more for plains and at least 30C or more for hilly regions. A 4.5 to 6.4-degree departure from normal is considered to declare a heatwave and a more than 6.4-degree departure for a severe heatwave. And, when the maximum temperature is equal to or above 45°C, it is a heatwave, while if it's 47°C or above, it is a severe heatwave. The above criteria should be met at least in 2 stations in a Meteorological sub-division for at least two consecutive days to declare a heat wave. Heat waves usually occur in the months of March to June and in some rare cases even in July. The peak month of the heat wave over India is May. Heat waves generally occur over plains of northwest India, Central, East and north Peninsular India. It covers Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, parts of Maharashtra and Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Sometimes it occurs over Tamilnadu and Kerala also.   However, maximum temperatures more than 45°C are observed mainly over Rajasthan and Vidarbha region. IMD's network of surface observatories covering the entire country measure various meteorological parameters like temperature, relative humidity, pressure, wind speed and direction etc. Based on daily maximum temperature station data, climatology of maximum temperature is prepared for the period 1981-2010 to find out the normal maximum temperature of the day for a particular station. Thereafter, IMD declares a heatwave over the region as per its definition. The health impact of heat waves typically involves dehydration, heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke. The IMD uses four colour codes for weather warnings. Green means no action needed, yellow refers to watch and stay updated, orange means be prepared while red alert means take action. Watch video

Temperature, work, and lifestyle is a matter of perspective. We live where temperatures go from 40C to -50C, we need to be adaptable just like the animals around us.
