Italy may have registered Europe’s hottest temperature on record – BBC News
The Italian island of Sicily may have registered the hottest temperature ever recorded in Europe – 48.8C (119.8F).
Regional authorities reported the reading, which needs to be verified by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), near Syracuse on Wednesday.
According to the WMO, the current official record in Europe is 48C, registered in Athens, Greece, in 1977.
The latest heatwave in Italy is being caused by an anticyclone – nicknamed Lucifer – moving up from Africa.
Anticyclones are areas of high atmospheric pressure where the air is sinking.
Lucifer is forecast to head north across mainland Italy, further raising temperatures in cities including the capital, Rome.
Italy’s health ministry has issued “red” alerts for extreme heat in several regions and the number of cities that face the highest health risk is expected to rise from eight to 15 by Friday.

Mexico devises revolutionary method to reverse semiarid land degradation
- The process utilizes two plants commonly found on semiarid lands that grow well under drought conditions: agave and mesquite. The two are intercropped and then the agave is fermented and mixed with the mesquite to produce an excellent, inexpensive, and very marketable fodder for grazing animals.
- The new technique is achieving success in Mexico and could be applied to global degraded lands. It is, says one expert “among the most soil regenerative schemes on Earth … deployed on degraded land, basically overgrazed and unsuitable for growing crops, with no irrigation or chemical inputs required whatsoever.”

Empoderamento feminino
Vivaldi translation: Female empowerment, among other things, has the function of empowering women so that they can manage their own lives. Empowerment has a close connection with knowledge, that is, it makes this woman aware of her rights, and learn to fight for it. An empowered woman, she does not delegate to the other (partner / partner) the obligation of that person to be responsible for her happiness, on the contrary, the woman assumes this role, asserts this individual power.
In many relationships, women “believe” that men are responsible for this role linked to “the obligation of happiness”. It is not. Culturally, many changes have been observed, one of which is to see this woman much stronger, being able to manage her own life, say “fighting for her own happiness”, without necessarily depending on a partner to reach the peak of her desires. “
O empoderamento feminino, dentre outras coisas, ele tem a função de dar poder a mulher para que esta, possa gerir a própria vida. O empoderamento tem uma estreita ligação com o conhecimento, ou seja, faz com que essa mulher tenha consciência sobre os seus direitos, e aprenda a lutar por isso. Uma mulher empoderada, ela não delega ao outro ( parceiro/ parceira) a obrigação dessa pessoa ser responsável pela sua felicidade, pelo contrário, a mulher assume esse papel, faz valer esse poder individual.
Em muitos relacionamentos, a mulher “acredita” que o homem é que seja responsável por esse papel atrelado ‘a obrigação da felicidade’. Não é. Culturalmente, tem-se observado muitas mudanças, e uma delas é vermos essa mulher muito mais forte, sendo capaz de administrar a própria vida, digamos ” lutando pela própria felicidade “, sem depender necessariamente um parceiro para alcançar o ápice dos seus desejos. “
