As currently measured, resilience, social vulnerability, and the five capitals might not translate into flood-related mortality reduction

La ville a organisé, lundi 13 octobre, un exercice inédit pour préparer habitants et secours à faire face à une montée des eaux majeure. Un scénario catastrophe qui représente le premier risque naturel pour la capitale.

« L’écart entre ce qu’il faudrait faire et la vitesse à laquelle progresse le changement climatique se creuse d’année en année. » Avec @magalireghezza.bsky.social, on a parlé des lacunes de l'adaptation, notamment concernant les écoles, les travailleurs et les villes www.lemonde.fr/planete/arti...

Canicule : « L’écart entre ce qu’il faudrait faire et la vitesse à laquelle progresse le changement climatique se creuse d’année en année »

Pour la géographe Magali Reghezza-Zitt, les réponses d’urgence apportées aux canicules ne suffisent plus devant l’ampleur des effets du réchauffement sur toute la société.
