Climate study/Hungary, Balkans are experiencing the effects of global warming faster

Hungary and the Balkans are experiencing the effects of global warming faster than other countries in Europe, with higher temperatures causing significant damage to agriculture.

A climate researcher has attributed the severe storms that hit Hungary last week to climate change.

Peter Szabo, an environmental historian, said the frequency and intensity of heat waves in the country has increased, along with heavy rainstorms.

"We can clearly see from the numbers that the frequency and intensity of heat waves has increased. So they are lasting longer and the temperatures are higher. In parallel, the frequency of storms seems to be increasing. And the length and intensity of droughts is also increasing. This is clearly due to climate change," the researcher said.

The researcher added that the Balkans and Hungary are experiencing the effects of global warming faster than other countries in Europe, with higher temperatures causing significant damage to Hungarian agriculture. /CNA
