Evelyne Dhéliat, worried: she alerts the heat wave
France faces a wave of heat wave which affects almost the whole territory, with temperatures which sometimes exceed 42 ° C in certain departments such as Drôme, Aude or Isère. Faced with this situation, Evelyne Dhéliat shared her concern on Twitter, this August 12: “Still very hot 42.9 ° in St Laurent du Pape, 42.3 ° in Carcassonne, 40.5 ° in Toulouse, 39.7 ° in Dijon … in the shade! Since yesterday, temperatures sometimes equal or superior to the ‘projections’ of Météo France for possible heat waves in August 2050, in 25 years!“.
The weather presenter thus refers to a special bulletin that she had produced in August 2014, anticipating the temperatures that France could know in 2050. The objective was to make viewers aware of the effects of global warming. Eleven years later, his projections were confirmed, but the alarmist remarks of the 77 -year -old host have cooled more than one.
Evelyne Dhéliat, criticized for her words: “Take care of making the weather!”
Many Internet users have criticized him for his statements. “”Evelyne, you disappoint me. Take care of doing the weather. The climate is much more complex. Climate forecasts are only statistical models. And the statistics, you can make them say anything if the entry data are false“, could we read among the comments on Twitter. Others quipped:”That madam is to speak to say nothing, in summer it’s hot, in winter it’s cold“.
Evelyne Dhéliat has been involved for years to raise public awareness of the consequences of global warming. In 2021, she even represented Europe during COP26 in Glasgow.
“”It is an honor to participate in this campaign. I am very proud, because they sent me a letter telling me that they were interesting to have my point of view. I was one of the first from 2004 to talk about climate change in weather reports“, she confided to TF1 Info.
