What happened, for context

Scientists reported on August 19, 2026, that human-caused climate change was the primary driver of record-breaking sea temperatures around Europe during summer 2026. The Mediterranean averaged 27°C in July and waters near Mallorca reached 33°C in early August, with the World Weather Attribution group finding these temperatures would have been nearly impossible without human-caused climate change.
