AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoExtreme Heat: Climate change drove nearly two-thirds of an estimated 50,391 heat deaths across 854 European cities this summer, researchers found. The toll is likely higher because the study excluded May’s heatwave and many areas. Loss and Damage: A UN fund has earmarked $20 million for Nepal after August’s deadly floods—the first such allocation—but the grant still needs approval and covers less than 0.5% of the country’s estimated $4.78 billion reconstruction bill. COP31: Nepal is preparing to push for climate justice and finance at the November summit in Türkiye, which hosts say will focus on putting climate policies into action. Global Warming: UN projections warn current commitments leave the world on course for about 2.8°C of warming, far above the Paris target. Wildfire Response: Britain plans to deploy military aircraft against fires as it faces the threat of hotter, drier conditions, alongside new forecasting tools and peatland restoration. Aral Sea Recovery: More than 1.1 million hectares of the dried seabed have been planted or seeded with hardy vegetation to curb salt and dust storms.
