With regard to the United Kingdom, the European Bureau of Meteorology reports, temperatures are expected to continue to rise, which will generate a new record for extreme temperatures.

The temperature in Tunisia and Africa reached 48 degrees, exceeding the highest temperature recorded in 40 years. This climate also affected the economic and productive life of the region, preventing good crops from grain, one of its most profitable businesses.
