The whole world is in shock: the climate apocalypse is no longer a fiction. The abnormal heat of 2024 roars the earth to a crisp crust, and Ukraine was no exception. It feels like it is turning into Africa. What is the cause of the diabolical temperatures, and what awaits us next? Let's deal with it.

Climate scientists sound the alarm: will Ukraine soon become a desert? This is evidenced by the Mediterranean weather in early July. In apartments, offices and shops non-stop air conditioners and refrigerators, and on the street – generators.
The power system cannot cope due to the large voltage and enemy strikes. Frequent power outages have already led to the fact that the sale of eggs, dairy products, fish and meat was banned in Kiev markets. So the authorities are fighting mass poisoning.
This African heat in Ukraine has not been for decades. Climate scientists believe that Ukrainians will soon be able to grow bananas. But this is not the only hello from Africa. In the spring, dust from the Sahara flew here twice, which caused residents to observe dirty red rain in many regions.
A huge contribution to the climate collapse is made by the Russian-Ukrainian war. Each shot at the front brings the weather apocalypse closer. 180 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions in carbon equivalent – the amount our planet has additionally received over the past 2 years.
In monetary terms, this is equivalent to $33 billion in damage to nature. The critical mass of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has led to irreversible changes in the climate. But there's another reason.
On June 6, 2023, the Russian occupiers blew up the Kakhovskaya HPP. Even then, environmentalists predicted a global change in our ecosystem. There will be new insects, reptiles and animals. Poisonous snakes and spiders will begin to move inland from the southern regions. So, today many villages in the Kherson region are experiencing an invasion of vipers.
Global warming will erase the off-season. The usual autumn and spring will go into oblivion. The extreme transition from summer shorts to down jackets will become commonplace.
The weather in Ukraine: what next? Soon we will remember the cool +30 with nostalgia. The first decade of July has already shown unnatural temperature peaks, especially in the south and southeast of Ukraine. There the air warmed up to 40 degrees and above.
The maximum temperature in the history of Ukraine over the past 150 years was recorded on August 12, 2010 at the Luhansk weather station - as much as 42 degrees. We could soon break that record. Already now, under direct sunlight in the asphalted city, the temperature reaches 55 degrees!
Ukrainians expect stuffy tropical nights, when the temperature will exceed 20 degrees. From July 15 to July 19, be prepared for increased heat - up to 42 degrees in the south and center of the country. Temperatures will start to drop after July 26. The abnormal heat will recede to the east. The long-awaited rains will return to Ukraine.
Abnormal heat 2024: weather in the world Not only Ukraine, but the whole world is on the verge of climate catastrophe. European environmentalists and politicians give humanity no more than 10 years to correct mistakes. The planet tends to change skin and shake people off like pesky parasites.
Already in 2023, we received a terrible message from nature. Large-scale floods, abnormal heat, forest fires and earthquakes marked the beginning of the climate collapse of the Earth. Expecting relief in the near future is worth it.
A strong wave of heat has already arrived in the Balkans and Eastern Europe. In the next 10 days, temperatures in these regions will break a huge number of monthly and absolute records. Duhota will cover Romania, Serbia, Poland, Albania, Greece, Czech Republic, Hungary, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Austria and other countries. Here experts promise 42-44 degrees Celsius. This is 10 degrees higher than the average indicators of the regions over the past 30 years.
With nature everything will be fine – she survived the dinosaurs. People will have to adapt: the abnormal heat of 2024 will not spare frivolous citizens. This is what you can do right now to make the world a little cooler.
Plant deciduous trees! This is perhaps the only effective solution that can postpone the climate catastrophe. In the shade can be as much as 15 degrees cooler than in the sun. It's easier to breathe.
