Climate change impacts
It takes only 184 days for the average Canadian to produce as much greenhouse gases as the average Greek will produce over the course of the entire year. Therefore, July 3rd (184 days into the year) is "Climate Change Impacts in Greece Day."
“Southern Greece could be one of the regions most affected by increase in year-to-year variability in summer climates and thus a higher incidence of heat waves and droughts. Mediterranean droughts would start earlier in the year and last longer.” Greece will also likely suffer the impacts associated with sea level rise.
