Barcelona, August 1 (IANS): Western Europe is warming faster than many other parts of the world, fueling more frequent heatwaves and creating conditions for increasingly severe wildfires, a Spanish climate expert said. He noted that temperatures in parts of Spain had already reached 35 degrees Celsius by the end of May. It attributes the sustained rise in summer temperatures largely to climate change, a conclusion del Campo shares. High temperatures, low relative humidity and strong winds have created conditions conducive to wildfires across Europe this summer. When a fire breaks out, this dry organic matter burns violently and rapidly, making the fire difficult to control from the outset," del Campo said.
