Yes, 43 degrees in Europe is different from 43 degrees in India.
Let me explain exactly why, in plain simple terms.
First, let me tell you what is happening in Europe right now.
From late May 2026, Europe has been hit by severe heatwaves with records being broken in Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
Temperatures are 10 to 15 degrees higher than normal for this time of year. France alone has reported at least 40 deaths. Spain recorded 101 heat-related deaths in May, its highest monthly figure on record.
By June 26, 327 heat-related deaths had been registered across the continent since June 21 alone.
This is not just a warm summer. People are dying. Now let me explain why.
Imagine a pressure cooker.
When you put the lid on a pressure cooker, the steam has nowhere to go. It builds up inside. The temperature keeps rising. Nothing escapes.
A heat dome works exactly like that lid. It is a high pressure system that gets stuck over a region. The hot air below it tries to rise and escape, but the high pressure pushes it back down.
As the air gets pushed down, it gets compressed into a smaller space, and when air gets compressed, it heats up even more.
Because the high pressure system blocks clouds from forming, the sun hits the ground directly with no filter. The ground heats up. That heat radiates back up.
And since the dome is still sitting there, that heat has nowhere to go either. It just keeps building, day after day after day.
This is what is sitting over Europe right now.
Meteorologists call the pattern that causes this an omega block, named after the Greek letter because of the shape it creates in the atmosphere. It is a stalled high pressure system that keeps the hot air pinned in place for days and sometimes weeks.
So while the number on the thermometer is the same. The situation is completely different.
India has been dealing with hot summers for thousands of years. Our whole civilisation adapted around it. Our houses were built with thick walls, courtyards, cross ventilation.
Our daily schedule shifts around heat. People know from childhood what to do when it is 43 degrees. You rest during afternoon, you drink water constantly, you stay in shade.
Europe did not build for this. Not even close.
Only about 20 percent of European homes have air conditioning. In many northern countries, buildings were historically designed to retain heat rather than release it.
Old stone buildings and Victorian-era architecture that keeps warmth in during cold winters become ovens in summer.
In the UK, Germany, France, Switzerland, and Luxembourg, the highest level red heat alerts have been issued.
Scientists have warned that much of Europe's housing and infrastructure was simply not designed for prolonged extreme heat.
Think about what this means practically. A 70 year old woman in Paris is sitting in a stone apartment that was built to hold in heat, with no AC, in 43 degree weather that her city has never experienced in June before.
> Her body does not know this heat.
> Her home does not know this heat.
> The entire city infrastructure does not know this heat.
A freight train in Sweden derailed on June 25 because the tracks warped from the heat. Overhead electric lines for trains in France snapped.
More than 3,100 European flights were delayed or cancelled in a single 24-hour period around June 21 because airports were not designed to operate in these temperatures.
Europe is the world's fastest-warming continent, with temperatures rising at about twice the global average rate. In 1976, when some of the previous European records were set, the 2026 temperatures would have been virtually impossible to occur in June.
In 2003, the first major heatwave of this century, this kind of daytime heat would have been about 10 times less likely than today.
So, the climate baseline has physically shifted. The same weather patterns that used to produce a warm June now produce a record-breaking dangerous June because the atmosphere they are operating in is hotter than it has ever been.
And this is not Europe's problem alone.
India already loses thousands of people every year to heat. Our agricultural workers, daily wage labourers, and construction workers work outside in 45 and 48 degree heat with no protection.
We have adapted culturally but we have not solved it structurally. Our own heat deaths are massively undercounted because India does not have a strong system for recording heat as a cause of death.
The reason the European heatwave matters is because what is happening there is a preview. Climate change is making heatwaves more frequent and more intense across every continent.
What Europe is experiencing in June 2026 is the new direction of travel.
48 degrees in Rajasthan is genuinely brutal and our people survive it every year through adaptation, habit, and often through sheer necessity because they have no other choice.
But the planet is getting hotter.
Every country is going to face versions of this. The question is not who has experienced more heat historically. The question is whether we are building systems, cities, and infrastructure that can handle what is coming.
Europe is learning that lesson right now the hard way. We should be paying attention too.
