(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 17 - Climate change due primarily to burning oil, coal and methane gas has caused on average a week-long increase in winter days above freezing in Italy during the 2014-2023 period, according to a research carried out by US NGO Climate Central, which analysed winters in 123 countries and 901 cities worldwide.
    The research found that the northwestern Italian city of Turin ranked third in the world for the number of winter days above freezing, otherwise called lost winter days, added by climate change - on average 30 a year, out of a total of 64, which would otherwise have been below zero. (ANSA).
