An airplane made an emergency landing in Brazil on Monday because of severe turbulence. Nearly 40 people were injured. The plane was flying from Spain to Uruguay. Many injured people went to hospital. A new plane flew other passengers to Uruguay. Turbulence has hurt many people recently.
Turbulence is the violent movement of air. It is very rare for turbulence to damage a plane. The biggest danger is when passengers do not wear a seat belt. A UK university said climate change is making severe turbulence worse. Accidents increased by 55 per cent between 1979 and 2020.
