07:34 : Hello FI! We left the Lyon region in 2014 to, in part, escape the scorching summers… here we are (very happy) in St Nazaire, but for 3 years the episodes of heat wave have caught up with us and are more and more frequent and long… Our daughters spend part of the summer in the Côtes d’Armor with the grandparents… normally “cool”! All this is accelerating, it’s frightening. Thank you for your work and have a good day everyone.
07:33 : Hello Violaine, France Info@Thomas, thank you also for this message. It is now, for lack of having done so before, and everywhere at all levels, that we must act. “…The punishment is there, and unfortunately it’s only the beginning. It will go from bad to worse. And the level of worse will depend on what humanity does from there now. Good day to all.
07:33 : Hello franceinfo! I react to Thomas de Lyon’s message: I am also from Lyon and unfortunately used to heat peaks. Good luck to all French people in the west! And I also agree that immobility on the climate will only amplify this change that is taking place on our beautiful planet…
07:32 : In the comments, @Relym shares a nice photo of the sunrise from Finistère, where Météo France is forecasting exceptional temperatures today. Moreover, most of you continue to react to scorching temperatures, while the multiplication of these extreme weather phenomena is a direct consequence of global warming according to scientists.
07:21 : For other dailies, both regional and national, it’s the heat wave that makes the headlines.
06:46 : Hello @Thomas Thank you for your message and good luck to you too!
06:46 : Hello France info, I wish a lot of courage to the French of the west who will face a scorching heat today. In Lyon we are unfortunately a little more accustomed to it and it is not livable. Our future is not enviable with climate change, we must launch all possible operations to cool cities, review our modes of travel, development and consumption. It is our current generations that are concerned, and no longer future generations. Have a nice day and as usual thank you for your work
