As it turns out, it’s called global warming since it is affecting the whole world. Now that heat waves are becoming a large problem in NA and Europe, Western media (being based there) is more likely to cover that. But lots of places have already been experiencing greater storms, floods, etc. due to the increase in global temperatures. And from my own experience in Asia, it’s really hot in the summer now, sometimes over 34 degrees (Celsius), far more than just a few years ago!
It’s nothing to do with Western media, it’s bad elsewhere too (over 50C in India last year and the rising sea levels are obliterating islands, for example) but it affects Europe the most.
