Fires, floods, flying insects: 10 recent climate-fuelled disastersGreece's worst heatwave in decades fanned deadly wildfires that burned nearly 100,000 hectares.

The WWA's analysis said climate change made the historic cold snap -- which devastated most of France's wine regions -- about 70% more likely.
