This is how we explain it to the child

Italy is a nice summer holiday destination because it has a swimming sea and the evenings are usually still nice and warm. However, it sometimes gets quite hot here during the summer months, and due to climate change, the temperature is getting higher in many places. If you don’t like it, you should go there during autumn break, not summer break. It’s usually a little cooler then.

like young

Climate charts are found in every travel guide and are intended to show approximately how hot it is when and where. He says something like this: The ideal travel time for Rome in Italy is between May and September: “Then it’s hot, but not as hot as in the summer.” However, climate diagrams consist of data series going back decades. They reflect the past. Looking back can be misleading because climate change has become even more apparent in recent years. For example, in the Rome region, the average annual temperature has increased by 2.4 degrees since 1979. There were colder years than expected until 2005. No more from now on.

And so adults

But this doesn’t have to be the case everywhere. And not in all seasons. Climate change is not increasing temperatures uniformly around the world, but rather affecting some regions more than others. For example, the increase in Milan is greater than in Palermo. So an old climate diagram may underestimate the expected average summer heat in a particular region, but not in another region. If you want to know exactly, you can access the most up-to-date climate diagrams online.
