法国首都当局已实施酒类销售及公共场所饮酒禁令,以期缓解因巴黎遭遇破纪录热浪导致的脱水患者给医院带来的负担。
市政官员宣布,从周五中午起至持续的热浪警报解除前,公共场所将禁止饮酒,但酒吧和餐厅的户外座位区除外。
本周气温已打破纪录,但预计西欧各地气温将在周末有所回落。
禁令期间,向消费者出售可带回家的 alcoholic beverages(酒类饮品)——但酒吧和餐厅除外——同样被禁止。
该措施旨在缓解热浪期间医疗工作者和应急服务部门的压力。
巴黎警察局局长帕特里斯·福尔周四表示:“我们正达到医院设施的饱和点。住院人数持续增加……我必须确保压力得到缓解。”
法国国家体育部长周五称,近日来全法至少有55人因在池塘、湖泊和河流中避暑时溺水身亡。
“昨晚我们统计到55人,但我们担心局势可能会恶化,”部长玛丽娜·法拉利在接受franceinfo新闻频道采访时表示。
与此同时,荷兰周五首次发布全国高温红色预警,预计气温将超过100华氏度。
荷兰国家气象研究所表示:“局势十分危险;请遵循政府和应急服务部门的指引。”
科学家称人类活动“毫无疑问”是祸首
世界天气归因组织周五发布的一项研究显示,造成欧洲大部分地区热浪的元凶是人为造成的气候变化。
研究指出,当前记录的6月气温在50年前“几乎不可能出现”,如今席卷欧洲大部分地区的热浪发生概率比2003年高出10倍。
科学家们还表示,人为造成的气候变化“毫无疑问”是本次热浪强度的罪魁祸首,并警告称快速淘汰化石燃料对于避免出现更高温度“至关重要”。
研究称,在西欧“最高日气温的升温速度约为全球变暖速度的三倍,夜间气温的升温速度约为两倍”。
该研究的首席研究员西奥多·基平写道:“此类热浪发生的概率已发生巨大变化。如果没有气候变化,今年6月不可能出现这样的高温事件。”
Paris halts alcohol sales to help hospitals amid deadly heat wave, as scientists blame human-caused climate change

Authorities in France’s capital have imposed restrictions on the sale and public consumption of alcohol, hoping to ease the burden on hospitals of people being brought in with dehydration as Paris bakes in a record-breaking heat wave.
City officials announced that the consumption of alcohol in public spaces would be prohibited, with the exception of outdoor seating areas at bars and restaurants, from noon on Friday until an ongoing heat wave alert is lifted.
Temperatures have set records this week, but they are forecast to ease across Western Europe over the weekend.
The sale of alcoholic beverages to take home – but not in bars and restaurants – is also prohibited during the ban.

The measure is aimed at reducing pressure on medical workers and emergency services during the heat wave.
“We are reaching a saturation point in hospital facilities,” Paris Police chief Patrice Faure said Thursday. “The number of hospitalizations keeps increasing … I must ensure that the pressure decreases.”
At least 55 people have drowned across France in recent days as they seek respite from the heat in ponds, lakes and rivers, the country’s national sports minister said Friday.
“Yesterday evening we were at 55, but we fear that the situation may worsen,” Minister Marina Ferrari told the franceinfo news outlet.
Meanwhile, the Netherlands issued a red alert for heat on Friday for the first time ever, with temperatures expected to exceed 100 degrees.

“The situation is dangerous; follow the guidance from the government and emergency services,” the Dutch national weather institute said.
Scientists say humans “unequivocally” to blame
A study published Friday by the World Weather Attribution organization found that human-caused climate change is to blame for the heat wave scorching most of Europe.
The study says the June temperatures currently being registered would have been “virtually impossible” 50 years ago, with the heat waves like the one now engulfing much of Europe 10 times more likely to happen than they were in 2003.
The scientists also say human-caused climate change is “unequivocally” responsible for the intensity of this heat wave, and they warn that a rapid phase-out of fossil fuels is “critical” to avoid the even higher temperatures.
In Western Europe “the hottest daily temperatures are warming at about triple the rate of global warming and night time temperatures at about twice the rate,” the study says.
“The chance of a heat wave like this has changed immensely,” wrote Theodore Keeping, the study’s lead author. “This event would not have been possible in June without climate change.”
