A new weekly recap for RTL Today, sharing here as a preview, read the full Recap on RTL.
1. Luxembourg will experience more heatwaves and droughts in the future.
On Monday morning, climatologist Andrew Ferrone was a guest on RTL Radio where he said average temperatures are expected to continue rising until 2050.
He underlined that even if the goal of limiting the world’s temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, heatwaves and periods of droughts will continue to occur. We have a great article showing just how dry Luxembourg is this year compared to last year.
To nobody’s surprise, the year 2022 is expected to be one of the driest years in Luxembourg’s history, according to the Water Management Authority which further underlines that isolated rainfalls and storms are unlikely to change much about the situation.
