Western Europe has just experienced its hottest June ever recorded, according to a rapid attribution study. The analysis concluded that comparable temperatures would have been virtually impossible in the climate of fifty years ago, underlining how human-caused warming has made such extremes far more likely. Scientists stress that the evidence linking these record heatwaves to greenhouse gas emissions is firmly established, making June 2025 a stark marker of the changing climate.

Why now: A record-breaking June heatwave in Western Europe, directly attributed to human-caused climate change, has prompted wide public and scientific discussion.
