## Resource

London Climate Action Week turned into a blistering reality check as Europe’s hottest June in decades forced cancellations, closed schools, and grounded trains — all while climate talks focused on adaptation. With temperatures hitting 39°C and UN leaders calling the city “cooking,” the heat dome trapping deadly heat is no longer a future threat but a present crisis. Concrete cities like London amplify the danger, while vulnerable populations face life-threatening conditions. Public health systems are under strain, electric vehicles struggle to charge, and livelihoods are disrupted — proving climate breakdown isn’t coming, it’s here, and we’re all sweating it out.
