2nd November 2024Climate crisis exposes vulnerability: Floods in Spain show urgent need for adaptation
The recent floods in Spain evoke comparisons with deadly European floods in 2021, highlighting the failure of warning systems and the urgency of adapting our infrastructure. Climate change makes such heavy rainfall events much more likely and intense. Scientists warn that these events will become more frequent, driven by a warming atmosphere and warmer ocean waters. While forecasts are often accurate, effectively warning and protecting communities is proving challenging. They call for rapid, large-scale adaptations in cities, landscape and infrastructure to mitigate future risks.
