## Resource

France is facing a deadly heatwave with 54 departments under red alert, as extreme temperatures disrupt daily life, schools, trains, and sports — and tragically, at least 20 drownings have been linked to people seeking relief. With air conditioning rare, the crisis highlights how climate change is accelerating, with scientists warning the next five years will shatter heat records. This heatwave, arriving earlier than usual and matching the deadly 2003 outbreak, underscores Europe’s rapid warming — where hundreds of thousands have already died from preventable heat-related causes. The situation is a stark, urgent call to act on climate change before more lives are lost. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
