Climate change is the main cause of lightning strikes in the Arctic – NEWS 360 – WORLD

by time news

Washington: There were 7,278 lightning strikes last year in the once-rare Arctic region. This is more than double what has been reported over the past few years. According to scientists, this is due to climate change, which is threatening the world. The air in the Arctic region at the northern tip of the Earth does not have enough heat to cause lightning. Therefore, the current increase in lightning strikes indicates an increase in the temperature of the area. The current increase in Arctic temperature is three times the average global temperature. Various studies indicate that the ice sheets in the region are melting faster than expected due to the increase in temperature. Decreasing the amount of snow will cause more water to evaporate. This will add more moisture to the atmosphere and cause the temperature to rise. Researchers also say that cats need to be included in any precautionary measures against the virus. The researchers added that the significant increase in lightning strikes in the Arctic should be taken seriously and that more research be done on how the atmosphere responds to climate change. At the same time, the study found that last year the world recorded record temperatures. Record temperatures were recorded in Canada, Dominica, Taiwan, Morocco, Oman, Tunisia and the United States. The highest temperature in Europe was recorded in Syracuse, Italy. Hundreds of people in Canada and the United States were killed in a heat wave in the western United States in June and July last year. Catherine McKinney, Founder of the Canadian Environment and Climate Change Minister, commented that climate change is real and has begun.
