Admin’s Note

This news serves as a stark reminder of the serious impacts of recent climate change. I feel that the loss of many lives in countries like Spain should prompt all of us to take some form of action. The effects of heatwaves are not temporary and may continue in the future, making robust countermeasures essential. It’s important for young generations, like those in Chaco, to be concerned about this issue and think about the future.
