Heatwave starting July 5th, insecticides & news
An intense heatwave is expected across the entire country starting early next week. Furthermore, the Senate has voted for the return of certain chemicals for agriculture, while France maintains its position on the phase-out of internal combustion engines against Germany.
You will have to face heatwave temperatures starting Sunday, July 5th. This stifling heatwave has already prompted the organizers of the Tour de France to take precautionary measures to protect riders and the public against the risks of dehydration.
This health vigilance extends to agriculture, as the Senate has just voted for the regulated reintroduction of two insecticides that were previously banned. This measure aims to support agricultural production, despite opposition from environmental advocates who are concerned about the health consequences.
The future of your travel and the automotive industry is also at stake. France is currently opposing Germany by defending a rapid electrification of European cars, without any relaxation of pollution standards. In this context, the Chinese manufacturer BYD is studying the possibility of setting up a factory in France.
Finally, a controversy is dividing the national media following the support of the CRIF (Representative Council of Jewish Institutions of France) for "Leon le média." This media outlet, present on Instagram, is accused of having broadcast a misleading edit of remarks by MP Jean-Luc Mélenchon.
