As Europeans swelter, can they learn from Australians?

As Europe endures a record-breaking heatwave, it's clear the continent's unpreparedness for such extreme weather underscores the urgency of addressing climate change. Australians, who face similar scorching summers, have developed strategies like better urban planning and advanced cooling systems that could offer valuable lessons. This situation matters because it highlights how proactive measures can mitigate the impacts of extreme heat, potentially saving lives and reducing economic losses. Learning from Australia’s experience could help Europe build resilience against future heatwaves.
