France’s prolonged heatwave has now claimed the life of a fourth child, while the overall death toll continues to rise. In Paris, an adult man was found unresponsive in the Canal Saint-Martin after reportedly swimming outside the designated area. As Europe’s most severe heatwave on record continues, hospitals are admitting growing numbers of patients and emergency departments remain under intense pressure. According to climatologist and former IPCC vice-chair Jean-Pascal van Ypersele, unless global CO₂ emissions are significantly reduced, future heatwaves are likely to become even more extreme.
