June 2025 was the hottest month ever recorded in 12 countries, including Pakistan, Japan, and Nigeria. According to Copernicus, the EU’s climate monitoring agency, about 790 million people faced dangerous heat across Europe, Asia, and Africa. This record-breaking heat shows how fast temperatures are rising worldwide.
Spring Sets New Heat Records
Spring 2025 was the hottest ever in Pakistan and parts of Central Asia. Cities saw soaring temperatures. Crops dried faster. Water sources shrank. These are strong signals of a warming planet.
Europe and Asia in Deep Heat
Europe faced temperatures 3°C above normal. This caused health problems and power disruptions. Japan had extreme heat on land and sea. South Korea, China, and North Korea also broke records. For millions, daily life became more difficult.
Africa’s Heat Stress Rising
In Africa, countries like South Sudan and Nigeria crossed earlier heat records. Homes, schools, and farms all suffered. Heat-related illnesses increased. Crops failed in several regions, reducing food supply.
Global Warming Behind These Events
Scientists link these heatwaves to global warming. Greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere. As emissions rise, the Earth becomes hotter. Climate systems become unstable. This leads to more heatwaves, floods, and droughts.
Experts Urge Urgent Action
Climate experts demand strong global action. Emissions must drop quickly. Clean energy must grow. Without this, the extreme heat of June 2025 may become a yearly reality. Leaders must act now to protect the future.
