The European Environmental Agency (EE) announced that excessive weather conditions have been caused by the death of 195 thousand people in Europe since 1980. In the EEA report, between 1980-2021, floods, storms, hot and cold air waves, forest fires and soil slips were noted that over 560 billion euros had economic losses. The agency said that only 170 billion euro of this financial damage is insured by 30 percent. "We need to proactively prepare to interfere with urgently extreme weather events to prevent further loss" said Aleksandra Kazmierczak AFP. According to the last data, hot air waves led to 81 percent of deaths and 15 percent of financial losses. EEA said that Europe should take measures to protect the ageing population and is particularly sensitive to excessive hot. After the repetitive hot air waves in the summer of 2022, more death than normal in Europe, but 2022 deaths were not included in the data published. EEA said that in July 2022 more than 53 thousand deaths with 16 percent increase compared to a monthly average of 2016-2019, but all of these deaths are not directly connected to warms.

"The results for the treatment may be destructive"
] [[T]lim models are longer, more dense and more often predicts hot air waves. EEA said that the climate change caused by people was destroyed twice more space compared to the last years of forest fires in 2022, the risk of drought increases five or six times. In case of 1.5 degrees Celsius of the planet, economic losses, which are currently nine billion euros per year, can rise to 25 billion euros at the end of the century. According to scientific scenarios, in the case of 2 degrees Celsius, this figure can rise to 31 billion euros, 3 degrees Celsius, 45 billion euros. EEA has found a warning that the results for agriculture can be ‘stacker’. In the report, "By adapting the variety of products, it was called "can limit the negative effects of increased temperature and drought by changing October dates and changing irrigation patterns." If change is not done, it is estimated that yields and farm revenues will fall in the future.
