Coastline: cities soon to be submerged
It is now a scientific consensus: with global warming and rising sea levels, France will change considerably in the years to come. “Special Envoy” offers a dive in 2100, to discover whole sections of our submerged territory. Ultimately, one and a half million residents could be impacted, 800,000 jobs destroyed, 50,000 coastal homes under water.
But should we only speak in the future tense? Today, there are already cities where people have to abandon their homes, coastlines where dikes give way, where beaches narrow. Are we doomed to suffer? The magazine went to the Netherlands, to meet Dutch people who have developed a unique expertise in the world in terms of cohabitation with the sea.

Live Rescue
In July 2021, panicked, the mother of two-month-old Ryan contacted the Beauvais emergency call center: her baby was no longer breathing, he was “all blue“. It was a cardiac arrest. Immediately, the firefighter she had on the phone dispatched an emergency team to the scene but at the same time, he remotely guided the actions of this mother in distress and the helped save the infant by showing how to give him CPR.

Retirement: big anger in small towns
While the bill is being debated in the Senate, the social movement opposing pension reform began a new stage on Tuesday, March 7, with demonstrations that took place in more than 200 cities in France, but also a call to “bring France to a halt”. A team of “Special Envoy” went to follow the mobilization in Brittany.

Abortion: the Italian way of the cross
Fetal burial ceremonies, intimidation of women in hospitals, abusive anti-abortion caregivers… In Italy, the voluntary termination of pregnancy has been legal for forty-five years, and yet, the “anti-abortion” sow many obstacles in the way of those who want to terminate a pregnancy.
Pro-life movements are organizing in the hope of one day seeing this right called into question, as in the United States. And these movements have the ear of Giorgia Meloni, the new Prime Minister. In this country so close to ours, is the right to abortion threatened? Could it one day be abolished? “Special Envoy” journalists have infiltrated these movements which have never felt so powerful.
