Leaving behind the media stir, there are two issues to which this summer’s heatwave in Europe should open the eyes of decision-makers.
We are responsible for the disruption of the climate and for the dangerous world that we are going to bequeath to our children.
For some things, it is already too late. For others, courageous decisions have to be taken very quickly, even if they are not popular.
The thousands of deaths, often of elderly and sometimes unknown people, reminds us that it is not enough to ‘prolong life’ but that we need to give the means to live, whatever the situation, the handicap, health and age.
Our society is far from this and worse, it is getting further away from it. (Just look at the French Government’s decisions to lower taxes)."@en1
