Casele de pompe funebre din Franța semnalează o situație gravă din cauza căldurii: „Trăim într-un fel de distopie”

Funeral homes in France face a crisis due to record heat, leading to increased deaths and overwhelmed facilities. Gautier Caton reports a significant rise in bodies, necessitating refrigerated containers. The heatwave has exposed vulnerabilities in healthcare and elder care, prompting calls for urgent investment and structural changes. Preliminary data indicates over 2,000 excess deaths, with many occurring at home. Critics argue government measures are insufficient to address the ongoing challenges posed by climate change and an aging population.
