France: First Heatwave Of The Year And Temperature Records Broken

A pharmacy thermomether indicates 36°C. The very same day where Antonio Gutierrez, UN secretary, issues a dark warning about climate change and 'climate catastrophe', France is breaking heat records especially in south-west and south east. France is 11 to 13°C above normal temperatures for May. For now, May 2022 is the hottest May on record in France since 1850. France is also experiencing drought as, for example, in Toulouse, it rained 0.2 liter per square meter this month, for May, the normal rain is about 72 liters per square meter. Globally, the seven hottest years since 1850 are the last 7 years. In Toulouse, temperature reaches 35°C. Toulouse. May 22th 2022. (Photo by Alain Pitton/NurPhoto)
