SHOTLIST: ROME, ITALY (JULY 15, 2026) 1. VARIOUS OF MELTING ICE SCULPTURES OUTSIDE ROME'S COLESSEUMROME, ITALY - JULY 15, 2026: Greenpeace activists installed ice sculptures outside Rome's Colosseum on Wednesday, July 15, to highlight the impact of global warming and extreme heat on workers. The sculptures, representing an agricultural worker, a construction worker and a food delivery courier, were left to melt under the sun as part of the demonstration. The protest was organized to draw attention to the effects of rising temperatures on outdoor workers during Italy's latest heatwave. Italy is facing the most intense phase of its third heat wave of the year, with temperatures expected to approach 45C (113F) in Sardinia as drought conditions trigger water shortages. The country's heat alert system has expanded as authorities warn of dangerous conditions in central and southern Italy, ANSA news agency reported on Tuesday. The number of cities under the highest red alert level has increased from Level 2 on Monday to Level 4 on Tuesday, with seven cities expected to reach the highest risk category by Wednesday. Meteorologists forecast temperatures of 39C (102.2F) to 41C (1.5.8F) in many areas of central and southern Italy, with inland Sardinia expected to peak at 45C (113F) by Friday.
No matter the conditions, the automated feed truck developed by Agriculture Leveraging Automation Engineering can deliver the right amount of feed to thousands of cattle at the right time.
