A new UK record high temperature for January has been set in the Scottish Highlands according to provisional figures from the Met Office. It recorded a peak of 19.6°C at Kinlochewe on 28th January 2023 breaking a record set in 2003 by more than a full degree celsius. It is also the highest winter temperature ever recorded in Scotland.
Meanwhile, Spain has just preliminarily set a European record high temperature for January with 30.7°C recorded in Gavarda in the Valencian Community.
When winter becomes summer, can you imagine what summer will be like?
Humanity is relentlessly trashing our planet, our only home, yet despite this there is seemingly an increase in support for politicians and political parties (including here in the UK) who are opposed to even minor actions to mitigate the climate emergency let alone the radical and imaginative solutions and step changes required to save our species and all the biodiversity that we share our planet with.
