    The summer of 2024 was the hottest summer in Romania on record, in the reference interval 1901-2024, according to the National Meteorological Administration.  Residents seek relief from scorching temperatures, cooling off by city fountains and staying hydrated amidst the summer heat.  The WHO European Region is the fastest-warming of the 6 WHO regions, with temperatures rising at around twice the global average rate. Across the Region, in its 53 Member States, people are paying the ultimate price. The 3 warmest years on record for the Region have all occurred since 2020, and the 10 warmest years have been since 2007.  The average global temperature has been 1.5°C above the pre-industrial era for 12 successive months, according to new data issued by the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service. Heat stress, when the body cannot cool itself, is the leading cause of weather-related death in the WHO European Region. Heat can trigger exhaustion or heat stroke and exacerbate existing conditions such as cardiovascular, respiratory and kidney diseases, as well as mental health problems. WHO/Europe’s annual #KeepCool in the heat campaign has 3 simple messages on how to protect yourself and loved ones during a heatwave: Keep out of the heat, keep your home cool, keep your body cool and hydrated.The summer of 2024 was the hottest summer in Romania on record, in the reference interval 1901-2024, according to the National Meteorological Administration.  Residents seek relief from scorching temperatures, cooling off by city fountains and staying hydrated amidst the summer heat.  The WHO European Region is the fastest-warming of the 6 WHO regions, with temperatures rising at around twice the global average rate.
