Summary
France recorded over 1,000 additional deaths last week amid Europe’s record-breaking heat wave, as WHO warns the continent is warming faster than anywhere else and urgently needs better preparedness.

Heat stress, dubbed a “silent killer,” is exposing dangerous vulnerabilities in aging infrastructure and housing. Now, severe thunderstorms and wildfires — some near contaminated zones — are adding to the crisis, while trains and public transport grind to a halt. The escalating impacts demand immediate, coordinated global action. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
