European heatwave impacts economies
Europe experienced a record heatwave surpassing 40°C in several countries, such as France where temperatures reached 40.9°C. This wave led to increased demand for hotels, air conditioning units, and fans, while also disrupting transportation, energy, and agricultural sectors. Some nuclear reactors were shut down, and many homes lacked air conditioning systems. In contrast, the heatwave damaged infrastructure and resulted in potential economic losses amounting to hundreds of billions.
