New Era of Extreme Heat Impacts Economy and Environment


A new era of extreme heat is upon us, bringing with it significant challenges for global economies and the environment. According to a recent report, the increasingly frequent and intense heat waves will have alarming consequences in several sectors.

 

Rising temperatures are hurting agriculture, reducing crop yields and raising food costs. In addition, the energy sector faces increasing challenges, with increased demand for cooling and an increased likelihood of blackouts due to excessive use of air conditioning.

 

Cities are also being impacted, with risks to the health of the population, increased public health spending and urban infrastructure more vulnerable to damage caused by extreme temperatures.

 

Faced with this worrying scenario, there is an urgent need for collective action to combat climate change. The transition to clean and sustainable energy sources, as well as the implementation of more resilient agricultural practices, are essential to mitigate the negative effects of this new reality.

 

At WMF, we are committed to meeting this global challenge. Through our conservation and sustainability projects, we work tirelessly to protect the environment and support vulnerable communities.
