China News Service, December 7th. According to the British Sky TV report, the British Meteorological Service analysis shows that by the end of this century, in most parts of Britain, the days of snowball fights and skiing may be gone forever.
According to reports, studies have found that due to climate change, temperatures in most parts of southern England may not reach or fall below freezing point by the 1940s.
If the climate change trend continues, by 2080, only very high altitudes and parts of northern Scotland will experience freezing temperatures.
Data map: Many parts of the UK have encountered heavy snow, and the temperature has dropped below freezing.
The picture shows people walking on the streets of London in the snow.
The Met Office said that the climate changes every year. The above findings are based on the assumption that global emissions will continue to increase. Although the above situation may not be the most likely result, it is credible.
Even if emissions are reduced, average temperatures may still rise and lead to hotter and drier summers.
Dr. Lizzie Kenton, a senior scientist at the Met Office, said: "We expect that by the end of this century, except for the highest altitudes, most of the snow (in the UK) will be completely gone."
Kenton said that the first thing he will see is "warm and humid winters, hot and dry summers."
During this period, we will face more extreme climates.
These extreme weather events will occur more frequently, (the situation) will be more serious, and bring more intense rainfall.
"In our life...this will be a big change." Kenton said, "This is really a wake-up call to let us realize what we are talking about here." Kenton also pointed out that to At the end of this century, the frequency of two consecutive weather temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius will be 16 times higher than the average level from 1981 to 2000.
