Last update: 10 hours agoWildfire Preparedness in Greece: Greece’s Culture Ministry is upgrading protection at 22 major archaeological sites with early-detection and fire-response systems, including thermal and optical cameras that can alert control centers in real time; eight systems are already running at places like Ancient Olympia and Mycenae, with more due to go live by Aug. 31 and in September. Heatwave Alert: Authorities warn residents and tourists to limit sun exposure and hard activity as temperatures climb toward 40C in parts of Greece, with Attica and Athens also facing high heat. Climate Risk Research: A new study says climate change could nearly triple the area burned by wildfires across Europe by 2100 under a high-emissions path, with prevention and faster response still crucial. Wildfire Response on the Ground: Over the past day, Greece deployed aircraft and crews to tackle multiple blazes across the Peloponnese and central/northern regions, while much of the country stays under elevated fire risk.
