Europe could be faced with "catastrophic" situations if it does not take stock of climate risks. Extreme heat, drought, wildfires and floods that we have experienced in recent years in Europe will worsen, the European Environment Agency warns.
The study lists 36 major climate risks for Europe. Twenty-one of them require more immediate action and eight require urgent response. For the EEA, the priority is for European governments and populations to unanimously recognize the risks and agree to do more, faster.
