Scientists Say Climate Change Made Britain's 35°C Spring Heatwave Virtually Impossible Before
—Climate scientists have determined that the UK's recent spring temperatures reaching 35°C were virtually impossible without human-caused climate change, calling the heat "absolutely astonishing" for the season. Attribution studies found the probability of such extreme spring warmth to be near zero in a pre-industrial climate. The findings add to a growing body of evidence linking individual extreme weather events directly to greenhouse gas emissions.
