Runtime: 1:46
Date posted: 2 days ago
Description: Once a royal domain some 60 kilometres south of Paris, the Fontainebleau forest is well known for climbing and bouldering. But a wildfire swept through on 12 July decimating over 2,000 hectares of the forest – the equivalent of 2,800 football pitches. Caused by construction workers, the fire was made worse due to intense droughts and heatwaves brought on by climate change. RFI met with the National Forestry Office to witness the damage and find out why the area is still not out of danger.

Description: The Grande Motte glacier, which is located in the French Alps at an altitude of nearly 3700 metres, has been melting over the past few years at an increasingly rapid rate due to warming. Besides the impact on skiing, the melting has created a glacial lake, whose overflowing, could pose a risk to the ski resort of Tignes that lies below the glacier. As a result, measures such as siphoning, digging a channel and pumping have been taken to reduce the water volume in this lake.
