French authorities call for water conservation
French authorities have urged residents to conserve water across most parts of the country due to an unprecedented heatwave and severe drought, which have caused an unprecedented deterioration in river conditions and water levels. Warnings of an intensification of the situation are issued until the end of July. Data indicate that July 2026 was the hottest month in France in 126 years, with average temperatures reaching 24.9°C, an increase of 3.8°C above the 1991-2020 average. Additionally, there was a 70% deficit in rainfall, leading to record levels of soil dryness, similar to those experienced in 2022.
