Deadly wildfires and oppressive heat waves have swept across the globe as multiple countries experience record-breaking temperatures that environmentalists believe is a result of climate change.
Britain recorded its hottest day on record Tuesday, with temperatures peaking at 104.5 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius).
The extreme heat has led to wildfires in England, France, Spain and Portugal, with multiple reports of homes being destroyed. More than 1,000 people have died as a result of the high temperatures, the Washington Post reported Tuesday.
