Monday marked a historic moment as it was recorded as the hottest day ever, surpassing the previous day's record. Countries worldwide, including Japan, Bolivia, and the United States, are grappling with extreme heat, as reported by the European climate change service.

Provisional satellite data from Copernicus revealed that Monday's temperatures exceeded the previous day by 0.06 degrees Celsius (0.1 degree Fahrenheit). Climate scientists attribute this unprecedented warmth to human-induced climate change, stating that the world is currently as warm as it was 125,000 years ago.
