## Resource

London’s scorching summers are here to stay, fueled by climate change and bringing real strain on residents and infrastructure. Bus drivers sweat through heatwaves that feel like being in a microwave, while communities find creative ways to repurpose Thames trash — a small victory amid rising temperatures. But the city’s adapting challenges aren’t just environmental: e-bike accidents and cyclist lawsuits highlight urgent needs for safer urban mobility. As heatwaves intensify, Londoners are being forced to rethink daily life — and the city’s resilience will be tested like never before.
