Not so long ago, families coming to the shore in Montgat, Spain, just outside Barcelona, built sand castles, played paddle games and lounged around on the broad band of sand that was the picture of the European summer vacation. But now in some places, there is hardly enough room to put down a towel.
不久前，在巴塞罗那以外的西班牙蒙哥特的岸边的家庭建造了沙堡，玩桨游戏，并在宽阔的沙滩上闲逛，这是欧洲暑假的照片。但是现在在某些地方，几乎没有足够的空间放下毛巾。
“From here to there,” said Sofia Mella, 19, as she pointed far out to sea, “it was all sand.”
“从这里到那里，” 19岁的索非亚·梅拉（Sofia Mella）指出，她向大海指出，“都是沙子。”
Climate change is changing Europe into a summer paradise lost. Across Spain, Italy, Greece, France and beyond, sand-devouring storms, rising seas, asphyxiating temperatures, deadly floods and horrific wildfires have year after year turned some of the continent’s most desired getaways into miserable locales to get away from.
气候变化正在变成欧洲变成夏季天堂的失落。整个西班牙，意大利，希腊，法国和其他地区，散布沙的风暴，上升的海洋，窒息的温度，致命的洪水和可怕的野火，年复一年地将一些最令人痛苦的地方转向了一些最痛苦的地方。
As southern Europeans dream of fjords, the traditional hot spots and fixtures of travel agency package deals no longer seem so desirable. This past week, even though temperatures broke across much of the continent, experts and officials warned that the next heat wave would come soon, endangering vulnerable locals and making tourists question what they had gotten themselves into. Even activists seeking to free their cities from the scourge of overtourism saw no silver lining to the brutal conditions.
作为南欧人梦dream以求的峡湾，传统的热点和旅行社套餐交易的固定装置似乎不再那么理想。在过去的一周中，即使在整个大陆的大部分地区都有温度破裂，但专家和官员警告说，下一个热浪即将到来，危害弱势当地人，并使游客质疑他们所处的东西。即使是寻求使城市摆脱疲惫的祸害的激进主义者，也没有对残酷条件的银色衬里。
