Summary
Europe is reeling from a deadly heatwave that’s buckling roads, derailing trains, and straining hospitals — with Germany’s Autobahn cracking under 40°C, France’s ERs flooded with elderly heatstroke victims, and the UK recording its hottest June day ever, leading to tragic drownings. Without widespread air conditioning, vulnerable populations are paying the price — including a nursing home evacuation in Germany where one person died. This isn’t just uncomfortable weather — it’s a climate emergency exposing how unprepared infrastructure and systems are for extreme heat.
