2026年夏季，欧洲及全球多地遭遇历史性极端高温，造成数万人死亡、农作物减产、河流干涸及野火蔓延等严重后果 1。在德国，约14000例与高温相关的死亡记录中，有近三分之二集中在6月的一周内 1。一家荷兰银行估计夏季高温将导致欧盟损失1800亿欧元GDP，6月欧洲农民损失约900万吨谷物作物 1。欧洲莱茵河、多瑙河和波河部分河段降至历史低水位，影响航运 1。NOAA、欧盟哥白尼气候变化服务及日本气象厅均称上月为有记录以来最热或第二热的月份，本月全球日均海表温度达到1979年有记录以来的最高水平21.1摄氏度 1。美国农业部称2025年8月至2026年5月是美国自1976-77年以来最干旱的10个月，美国59%的高粱种植区正经历干旱，超过一半的牛生产和近三分之二的春小麦生产面临缺水 1。
尽管科学机构明确指出人类活动导致气候变暖，欧美多国极右翼政客仍否认气候变化并声称这是“正常夏季” 1。德国极右翼AfD党联合领导人Tino Chrupalla称这是“完全正常的夏季”，并将气候变化斥为“炒作” 1。英国改革党副领导人Richard Tice称“气候变化一直存在，也将永远存在”，美国共和党政治家Harriet Hageman称欧洲热浪是“正常的夏季循环” 1。西班牙极右翼Vox党称烧毁超过254000公顷土地的野火与气候变化无关 1。归因科学分析显示，更热的全球气温使西班牙野火发生概率增加20倍，法国增加一倍 1。
Europe and multiple regions worldwide experienced a historic extreme heatwave during the summer of 2026, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths, reduced crop yields, dried-up rivers, and spreading wildfires 1. In Germany alone, approximately 14,000 heat-related deaths were recorded, with nearly two-thirds concentrated within a single week in June 1. The economic and agricultural toll has been severe; a Dutch bank estimated that the summer heat will cost the European Union 180 billion euros in GDP, while European farmers lost about 9 million tons of grain crops in June 1. Furthermore, sections of the Rhine, Danube, and Po rivers in Europe dropped to historic low water levels, affecting shipping 1. In Spain, wildfires burned over 254,000 hectares of land 1. Globally, the daily average sea surface temperature reached a record high of 21.1 degrees Celsius this month, the highest level since records began in 1979 1. Meanwhile, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the EU's Copernicus Climate Change Service, and the Japan Meteorological Agency all reported that last month was either the hottest or second hottest on record 1.
In the United States, the Department of Agriculture stated that the period from August 2025 to May 2026 was the driest 10-month period since 1976-77 1. Currently, 59% of the U.S. sorghum-growing area is experiencing drought, while over half of cattle production and nearly two-thirds of spring wheat production face water shortages 1.
Despite scientific institutions explicitly stating that human activities cause global warming, far-right politicians across Europe and the U.S. continue to deny climate change, claiming it is a "normal summer" 1. UK Reform Party deputy leader Richard Tice claimed that "climate change has always been there and always will be" 1. U.S. Republican politician Harriet Hageman described the European heatwave as a "normal summer cycle" 1. German far-right AfD party co-leader Tino Chrupalla called it a "completely normal summer" and dismissed climate change as "hype" 1. Additionally, Spain's far-right Vox party asserted that the wildfires that burned over 254,000 hectares are unrelated to climate change 1. However, attribution science analysis shows that hotter global temperatures have increased the probability of wildfires in Spain by 20 times, and doubled the probability in France 1.
