For the good of the planet, we need to stop.

Our planet is at a critical point. We are no longer living in the age of climate change, we are now living in an age of climate crisis.

July saw multiple temperature records broken across Europe. Preliminary data shows that July 2019 was the hottest month ever recorded.

Just let that sink in for a moment!

In the UK, the MetOffice holds data from 1853 onwards. That is a long stretch of time and out of all those months in all those years, last month was the hottest.

Something is seriously wrong!

Temperatures reached 41.8 °C (107.2 °F) in Belgium, France experienced temperatures of 46.0 °C (114.8 °F), while the Netherlands baked with temperatures reaching 40.7 °C (105.3 °F).

What unites all these temperatures is that they broke the national records for the hottest temperature recorded in their respective countries.

When we delve into this further, we see that six European countries experienced record temperatures during June and July, Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.

All of these countries are located in Northern Europe and are not used to experiencing summer…
