Climate change and global warming are among the most discussed topics today. Recent data shows that temperatures are expected to rise by 6 to 12 degrees.

Minister of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, Murat Kurum, announced that temperatures will rise across the country. This increase, especially during the summer months, should be considered for its health impacts.

Minister Kurum emphasized the need for caution during hot weather. It is especially recommended for those with chronic illnesses, the elderly, pregnant women, and children to avoid being outdoors between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM.

With rising temperatures, the risk of forest fires also increases. Therefore, it is crucial for citizens to take precautions.

There are individual measures we can take to combat climate change. Water conservation, energy efficiency, and using eco-friendly products are some of them.
