Summary

France is breaking hundreds of temperature records early in the year, with heatwaves so intense they rival mid-summer extremes — all fueled by a deadly heat dome amplified by human-caused climate change. Scientists call it astonishing: Europe is warming twice as fast as the globe, turning routine weather into record-shattering events. With global warming projected to hit nearly three degrees by century’s end, extreme heat will arrive earlier, more often, and more dangerously — unless we slash emissions now. The planet’s baseline is hotter, our infrastructure isn’t ready, and the clock is ticking. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
