Cold cities warming quickly
A scientific study has revealed that cities located in cold regions experience faster increases in temperatures compared to those with hot climates. Some eastern European cities and parts of West Asia have seen temperature rises of up to 4 degrees Celsius over 20 years, due to declining snow cover and rapid urban expansion. Additionally, the number of hot nights has increased by 47%, heightening health risks for residents, especially the elderly. There has also been a global increase of about 51% in exposure to extreme heat, mainly attributed to climate change.
