Spain is establishing a nationwide network of climate shelters to provide refuge from intense heatwaves, as announced by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez. The initiative includes existing shelters in Barcelona and the Basque Country and aims to address the growing severity of climate change through 80 initiatives targeting issues like flooding and wildfires. The average temperature in Spain has risen significantly, leading to more frequent extreme heat events. The new shelters will be particularly vital in urban areas and will support vulnerable populations. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
