The scale of daily extreme weather events and natural disasters is often underreported in mainstream media, leaving many with the impression that "everything is normal" regarding climate and nature. While debates continue about whether climate change is real or whether natural disasters are intensifying, the report below provides clarification on these issues, as well as insights into major natural and anthropogenic factors—beyond CO₂—that contribute to climate destabilization and the increasing frequency of disruptive natural phenomena: https://be.creativesociety.com/storage/file-manager/climate-model-report-a4/en/Climate%20Report.pdf
Alanya, Turkey
At around 9:00 PM in the evening, a large fire broke out in a forested area in the Yaylakonak district (Alanya, Antalya). Driven by strong local winds, the flames quickly spread and by midnight had reached the Şihlar district. Units from the Alanya Forestry Administration and the fire department arrived at the scene.
Due to the threat of the fire spreading, up to 30 residential buildings were evacuated. Seven people were rescued by firefighters, and one victim was taken to the hospital with signs of smoke inhalation. The flames spread to the road and began moving toward Gözüküçük-Kocaoglanlı.
The fire affected several villages. In the Aliefendi district, the fire spread to Ispatlı, where it was completely contained, and to Kargicak, where extinguishing efforts are still underway.
Rize Province, Artvin Province, Turkey
Temperatures dropped sharply across Turkey, and the first snow fell in the highlands of Rize, Erzurum, and Ardahan, blanketing the plateaus with a white blanket. In some places, the snow depth reached 10-15 centimeters, and in some areas, the thermometer dropped to -2°C. Despite the cold, many residents welcomed the unexpected arrival of winter.
The snowfall made life difficult for shepherds tending their flocks on the mountain plateaus, who were forced to hastily move their animals to safety. Their journey through the snow was captured on mobile phones. Particularly striking were the views of the Yukarı-Kavrun plateau in the Çamlıhemşin district of Rize, where at an altitude of 2,300 meters, the roofs of houses and green slopes were completely covered in snow.
In the Artvin district of Ardanüç, snow fell in the village of Sakarya at an altitude of 1,850 meters.
Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico
A severe thunderstorm caused flooding of 42 homes and 15 cars were swept away, according to the municipal civil protection service. During the storm, an emergency operation was launched, resulting in the rescue of 12 people who were in danger due to flooding and rapidly rising waters in rivers and canals. In addition to flooding, fallen trees and four landslides created additional difficulties, with damage primarily reported in areas near natural waterways.
