The 32°C heat expected in large parts of England tomorrow has been made 100 times more likely by human-caused climate change, an extremely rapid scientific analysis shows.
Prior to the mass burning of coal, oil and gas, a day reaching 32°C heat in June would be extremely rare in the UK - arriving once every 2,500 years on average. Now, with the world teetering 1.3°C above pre-industrial times, such days will strike once every five years.
