According to data released by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration on the 10th, the average temperature in the mainland of the US reached 24.94 degrees Celsius in July, the hottest July since the US had relevant records in 132 years. The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said that in 48 states in the mainland of the United States excluding Alaska, Hawaii and overseas territories, temperatures in July were generally higher than previous years. Among them, the western mountains, the southwest, the northern plains, and the southeast are the hottest. Russ Worth, director of monitoring at the National Environmental Information Center under the agency, said that the temperatures in the 48 local states were at least 0.6 degrees Celsius higher than the 20th century average. The bureau believes that the main reason why the high temperature broke the record this time was that the lowest temperature at night remained high. Hot nights are a typical sign of climate change due to human activity. Scientists believe that the root cause of the current climate phenomena is extensive human use of fossil energy such as coal, oil, and natural gas.
