Scientists have discovered the cause of deadly floods in Europe.

Global warming has caused devastating floods in Africa and Central Europe. These floods have taken the lives of more than 15 people and caused significant destruction. Climatologists state that such catastrophic downpours are expected due to climate change. The water cycle depends on many factors, so the connection of extreme rains with human impact requires cautious statements. The analysis of the floods showed that a significant portion of the moisture came from the warmer Black and Mediterranean Seas. In recent decades, bursts of September precipitation have intensified in some Central European countries. At the weather and climate conference in Vienna, the physics of increasing precipitation intensity along the Danube River was discussed. Scientists urge governments to invest in adaptation to extreme weather events and to end dependence on fossil fuels. Climate change makes our planet more dangerous and more costly to live in.

Heavy rains and floods continue to wreak havoc in Central and Eastern Europe. As a result, the death toll has reached 17 people, tens of thousands have been forced to leave their homes, and floods have affected streets and electricity supply. In response, Poland has declared a state of emergency in southern regions, and governments continue to fight the aftermath of the disaster and provide aid to the affected people.
