Drought and Heat Waves Transform London’s Parks

Weeks of intense heat and dry weather have noticeably altered the landscape throughout London. Temperatures have reached unprecedented levels, increasing concerns about potential wildfires.

Last week, visitors at Primrose Hill in London sought refuge under trees, escaping the sun’s intensity on the dry, brown grass.

Though the area is called Green Park, the parched terrain barely resembles its name, showcasing an increasingly alarming shade of brown.
