Every year we see significant changes in the global climate. For example, in Ukraine, the summer of 2019 in the capital of the state - Kiev has become one of the hottest in almost 140 years. There are several known hypotheses about the causes of such climate change. What is the main reason for such climate change on the planet?
This heat wave in Ukraine in Kiev has nothing to do with the global climate change. It is only a local weather event. Ukraine is not the entire planet. The heat waves in the past were as bad and many times as worse than the recent ones. There will be such or worse local weather events in the future. See, for example, the link that lists a lot of heat waves in the distant past:

On top of that "The climate system is a coupled non-linear chaotic system, and therefore the reliable long-term prediction of future climate states is not possible." See the link UN Inter agency Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

such as bullet point 4.... "The rapid forcing of a non-linear system has a high prospect of producing surprises."
