the great drama basically and will

1:13

get more of the same and actually the recently

1:15

extended avoiding and see the early hours

1:44

this weather might start to break their north is that

1:46

moving into monday

1:47

and it's meeting interlace sunday

1:49

and they see what's happening is we've got this area of

1:52

high pressure in over scandinavia to support

1:54

exceeds other subs zipping dominated

1:56

where the right across europe as well snare

1:58

does good claims of

2:00

not become determinant feature what's gonna happen

2:02

is and these gets faith low pressure

2:04

system

2:05

you keep the predator

2:07

is so actually that's going to seat up a lot more

2:09

moisture and over at the latter stages

2:11

of the weekend or the temperatures will still be

2:14

very harsh it could defeat extremely close

2:16

later this week and the wet bulb says they really

2:18

really feel free humor sat there and

2:21

but what will to spark off with into some activity

2:23

but am this moment and

2:26

a lot of the country i would say with say try for

2:28

lot of sunday day is probably late for

2:30

that a sharp downpours will fall

2:32

upon it's really sunday night and to monday to be

2:34

more widespread so let the one step at

2:36

a time as was tomorrow in there we can expect

2:38

more of the same the heavily on as a as yes i say

2:40

there

2:40

the pencil though for one or two shop

2:43

shares very local

2:44

2:54

mercury and say to see does that exceeds and

2:56

your tongue or the for awkward which was possible

2:59

3:01

separate events the most recent of which was

3:03

in nineteen ninety five and again

3:05

in oak park

3:06

ricardo there you know listeners

3:09

3:13

for august though we might like the idea that the sunshine

3:16

and a hostile for our holidays i remember

3:18

of a few stormy holidays that all the yeah i've had

3:20

over the last year so

3:22

when the black wetter months of the year

3:24

here in ireland so as he concedes

3:26

been am it's it's been a lotta try whether it

3:28

actually doesn't fit the definition of any drives

3:31

and definition that we haven't met errands but

3:33

there's no real official am definition

3:35

per se

3:36

the actually tried to partial rights

3:39

and but actually doesn't sees anyone any those one

3:41

definitions but we have to look ice

3:43

the winter look at the gardens it's been

3:45

an face it leads right per se

3:47

for a long time

3:48

the rain coming next week definitely early cooler

3:50

temperatures

3:51

the camps as temperatures baghdad's kind of we cease

3:53

3:55

downward i still say some other days

3:58

3:59

in and temperatures in the twenties a high

4:02

teens and twenties look that says

4:04

4:09

use of own kentucky for now people those guided

4:11

4:29

the program as well at we're looking at even

4:31

drugs in some parts of the uk know

4:33

that's right he had a third of tries to lie

4:35

there for your we sometimes so

4:37

and yeah it's it's face similar the

4:39

weather here in ireland is while you know assists

4:41

yell at me with was a few less and ace

4:43

and but last week began or the week

4:46

before so sony reason why we're not

4:48

officially in a drives per se so and

4:50

feel very similar weather here in ireland as in

4:52

the uk but

4:52

the damage that higher and europe

4:55

severely impact of i know whether to was when

4:57

germany poland romania is lee sweden

4:59

and greece at what will that break as well next

5:01

week as that we were expecting is that what we watch out for to the

5:03

i will fare fema actually what's gonna happen here

5:05

in ireland it's more type that area are you

5:07

the usual atlantic that

5:10

will probably take over so

5:12

and spells seat conditions change it a little

5:14

bit officer

5:15

the mainland europe to suffer fittings com

5:17

into and there are are the help some a little

5:19

less half sensible i know you can only forecast

5:21

so far ahead for sad beyond

5:23

next week i mean we've had quite a number of

5:25

these hospitals or the this one officially became

5:27

a heatwave as he said because we passed by

5:30

days of about the rest of us are yes that's

5:32

correct size these hackers of taste is this it for

5:34

august i wonder if some

5:35

wait and see that was very good educations

5:38

with extreme forecasted attack sanity

5:40

arts and three week am or for

5:42

week and turrets the clinic so

5:44

case climb this and from lodged

5:46

pocket of forecasts for and

5:48

5:52

try and august at the very least and

5:55

temperatures i mean they kind of came to the

5:57

for an suited that after that but

up the monkeys mean a job rice and

6:04

what what and with their kids the rest of us at the beach

6:06

6:12

loss of on seasonal weather as as hot

6:15

as as a as an uneven the drought risk as

6:17

we are in other countries to yeah well

6:19

as those

6:20

you know the i mean this is my mean

6:22

that count as today's one particular that would

6:24

sucker our particular table climate change

6:27

sport this a showcase of

6:28

can we are expecting okay

6:30

everybody wants to give their they the the

6:33

7:25

stations and they been institute for many

7:27

many a year as we know like you know so we are comparing

7:30

like with like over many years so

7:32

and stuff where we can actually kind of a cleese how

7:34

these figures are comparing to end the

7:37

years gone by and had this it into the sea tomato

7:39

sauce last but just a reminder opposite super

7:41

mood as i theres while

7:42

views of a last nice subsidies over

7:59

extra care indeed to stay safe

8:02

to a sound advice sigma very modest joyous yeah and

8:04

states use him as a bunch of unrein thank you very much

8:06

for joining me in studio a drought

8:08

has been declared for parts of england as i mentioned

8:10

following the dry a summer for fifty years

8:13

and there have been cause here for people to conserve

8:15

water to alex why is his education

8:17

coordinator with global action plan and joins

8:20

me now to offer some advice and tips

8:22

at for water conservation and good afternoon

8:24

she was well alex i right now sir asking

8:27

people earlier today to be considerate with their use

8:29

of water and i presume you would echo

8:31

that sentiments absolutely

8:33

i say a finite resource it's so essential

8:36

to to all our lives and yet we

8:38

just stare we want to try and charity different

8:40

little bits and pieces of sorts

8:42

of people can take to get a little bit

8:44

more and sensible about what use and of

8:46

be more careful alex's is another thing to say be

8:48

considerate about to use of was are or

8:50

simply to going farther with restrictions on hosts

8:53

pythons are washing the car as the paddling

8:55

pool things like that i mean i think

8:57

generally speaking we told me to be very wise about

8:59

how we use an uses very very precious

9:02

resource and dicing cutting out of for

9:04

from our perspective which is where you wanted to help

9:06

people lack of people few ideas about how the much as

9:08

so give us some of them alex then some basic

9:10

tips i suppose we we know the basics are just

9:12

watch how often you're you're turning on the

9:14

top or or flushing the losers absolutely

9:17

i mean so i'm sure though heard the

9:20

saying nice if it's a yellow let it mellow

9:22

much of a let's say that much a butthead but

9:24

it's like to be a if you don't need to flush the toilet

9:26

may be just don't say ,

9:28

reaches i think average weekly think i kind of

9:30

background flush it down is that a lot of on

9:32

as though on the simply a

9:35

pattern with flush the toilet on average toilet on the day

9:37

which is nice me and as distinction

9:39

between like or and six liters though

9:41

every one of those that maybe we don't necessarily

9:43

need to flush is another forty tons of central

9:46

drinking water that were using there's too

9:48

much was are in a lot of toilet flushing ever

9:50

think that well

9:52

yeah but wanting you could do that as is an

9:54

put a break in his or maybe not

9:56

a plastic bottle of water maybe to live by the water

9:58

if you put that mack then you're going to reduce the capacity

10:01

of your sister and it's still a little plush perfectly well

10:03

but i'm you can ah yeah you can or can use a

10:05

little bit less water as you do questions be

10:07

careful not to break [unk] cuisine carefully i'd say around

10:10

that pipe work out

10:12

for legal then and on leaking pipes or tops

10:14

as well absolutely so i'm

10:17

lucky that can and eight mean it seems

10:19

just like a little job but it can jacobson

10:21

mega hundred fifty like leaks the water awake and

10:23

that can really really add up over a period of time

10:25

slots the just checking your tops and it's not

10:27

hard to to replace the washer i didn't respond

10:29

myself at first i am

10:31

and free advertising washington going hundred

10:34

be of our yeah for example of same sex

10:36

and alex you want us to reduce the length of our

10:38

showers as much as seen from my wants it to cool off

10:41

with a shower just isn't as time into dot down

10:43

to four minutes yeah

10:45

politics exam is it seems like it's

10:47

a it's a pretty written moments time as a dependent

10:49

shower and obviously yeah what you must

10:51

go police officers on that seems diminish

10:53

our which is very interesting as you can install a

10:56

low flow air raids are you get them on top lunch

10:58

hours and stay young to change the

11:00

water pressure little wrestling she's a little bit of an the

11:02

you actually have less water flowing through the shower head

11:04

on the task to no one on a five

11:06

year in the in their in their hardware shop is on i

11:08

was on holidays this week and i was something

11:10

or neuron and and and campsite where you put

11:12

in money into your shower because

11:15

it's conserving the walls or and you have a limited times

11:17

and one time size allowed me four minutes from my

11:19

one euro one allowed me five minutes and

11:21

one allowed me six minutes and with that

11:23

long enough will actually by the time i had a six

11:25

minute shower i would think that i could a shower the whole some

11:29

of the may want to get use to adjust

11:31

to absolutely i

11:33

encourage you know four minutes i center for coffee

11:36

not find myself as up and walking around

11:38

that miss not being blown can i get everything

11:40

done rice a water

11:42

tip said you well i otherwise they're

11:44

what what would you say for people heading out about us with

11:46

everyone brings their water bottles now as well

11:48

do they are have you any other quick tips for people

11:50

heading out and join us on this weekend

11:52

yeah we're running with and wanted

11:54

nothing really really great is recycled water am

11:56

and i think you know when and when

11:58

we do have rain coming

11:59

the and that falling falling

12:02

on roads the to use a few have what about to the bottom

12:04

of that of , drain pipe then

12:06

you can come to such collect some that rang wash and that can

12:08

be used for for washing plans

12:10

for cars so that some such as some

12:12

such handy to have confirmed long term people

12:14

might or might think that looking into as well and everybody

12:17

was on about water boats or maybe buying them in

12:19

recent years or recycling a wonder if money was

12:21

actually doesn't the end though they wonder how

12:23

that knowledge was one actually i can't say out

12:25

here in the garden and it's great for for

12:27

watching that what a bunch of i am

12:31

obviously we need to think of these

12:33

things not just for the heat wave us was

12:35

we have to embrace them into our to our allies going forward

12:38

actually it it's just tiny little changes

12:40

that we can make just little and little small

12:42

little things that we can do to the have a maximum

12:44

impact and i couldn't keep them back that server

12:46

and to the top dropping like if we if

12:48

we do that little change and you

12:51

don't have that little drop adding

12:52

then you have a bigger impact

12:54

over and over long periods of time snow

12:57

shovel and who was just talking to us of online for messier

12:59

now has come back to tell me it was thirty one

13:01

point seven in oak park are that's where

13:03

it's gone to now with that's and carlo again the

13:06

all time august high as exceeded

13:09

and their of i suppose em all

13:11

the more reason why we need to think about drought if it's happening

13:13

across the rest of europe alex absolutely

13:16

and i mean you know we are very lucky in

13:18

our lives in the we have huge manslaughter are usually

13:21

, quite a lot water nothing with with kind

13:23

of grown to this mentality where we we

13:26

we just think that it's not an issue but i

13:28

you know it as the other parts of the world's and

13:30

you know as nathan and for our neighbors are

13:32

struggling with i was by as well so we

13:35

can just a little thing sits below them as

13:37

ali's especially the region

13:40

is another thing alex thanks very much for

13:42

joining me alex why it education coordinator there

13:44

was global action plan here

14:07

media in this country sick of listening about people

14:09

going on about the weather thirty degrees and

14:11

it's august i'd be worried if it's thirty degrees on

14:13

christmas day it isn't news he thinks

14:16

just a great summer back shortly

14:21

i'm a crisis is

14:23

hitting continental europe hard in

14:25

germany the rhine river has dropped to exceptionally

14:28

low levels in some areas and is disrupting

14:30

shipping on the country's most important

14:32

supply chains meanwhile in france a number

14:35

of extreme he's and the

14:37

extreme he's excuse me a summer of extreme

14:40

heat and drought has caused the most serious

14:42

forest fires and years leading to the

14:44

evacuation of at least ten thousand people

14:46

one friends firefighter described blazers

14:48

in southwest france as a sleeping

14:51

monster which can wait as any gust

14:53

of wind to find out about the extreme weather

14:55

conditions in germany and france i'm joined by

14:57

thomas borrowed german correspondent for

14:59

deutsche welle and france twenty

15:01

four in berlin by and

15:03

by reporter william blue cross in france

15:06

tommaso start with you at first in germany

15:08

good evening tell me about those water levels

15:10

on the rhine and these dangerously low

15:12

levels as we hear it

15:15

definitely dangerously low in

15:17

fat cells very low

15:19

indeed for barges want to travel

15:22

or the rhine the rhine as you may

15:24

know is particularly important not only for germany

15:26

but also for your if it's one of the most

15:28

important waterways in europe

15:30

and for germany's economy it's also

15:33

see because it is via the

15:35

river rhine that's a lot of germany's

15:37

products are being transported

15:39

on if the water continues to be as

15:41

though he wasn't able to continue to be that low

15:44

in some of the bodies on the river rhine will

15:46

not be able to either use it

15:48

or they will have to stop being

15:50

a full capacity and as you can imagine

15:53

the lower the capacity to hire the

15:55

prices they're already reports that

15:57

at prices are going up have some of the products

15:59

that are you can put it on the german government

16:02

is already looking at alternatives have

16:04

one of the most discussed alternative

16:06

is to either stop using some

16:08

of the bodies on taking some

16:10

of those supply chains to rails

16:13

to cargo trains or this the biggest

16:15

cause i'm here in germany it is expected

16:17

that some of those levels will continue

16:19

to be very low in the next few

16:21

days although some of the weather forecast

16:24

have predicted slice rain

16:26

in some parts of western germany where the

16:28

right okay so this is already have a huge

16:31

impact on the shipping industry as he mentioned

16:33

and we talk a lot about energy and cost

16:35

of living is is that the of the rivers

16:37

been relied on to transport cold as well in the ongoing

16:39

energy crisis arise not

16:42

only chemicals or grains it's also

16:44

coal and in that particular context

16:46

here in germany call plays an important

16:49

role as part of germany's goal to

16:51

diversify it's energy sources

16:53

as you may know russia has

16:56

reduced it's delivery of gas

16:58

through the nord stream one five back to germany

17:00

and that has prompted germany to try and find

17:03

alternative sources to guarantee earnest

17:05

energy security and one of those alternative

17:07

energy sources is indeed cold

17:10

and cold is normally transported

17:12

by a river like the rhine

17:14

the hope is that it's it will still continue to be

17:16

the case of the government is also considering

17:19

whether it has to change certain rules

17:21

to make it a priority to also

17:23

transport poll by a cargo

17:26

trays in germany to find a specific slots

17:28

to then be able to use rail as well

17:31

as as ship so it is certainly

17:33

very potent early from an economic

17:36

perspective if you look specifically at the river rhine

17:38

but it's also very much a

17:40

total because very much critical for germany's

17:43

energy security and for all this debate

17:45

that has been going on for months when it comes

17:47

to germany's priority when priority comes to guaranteeing

17:50

energy supply for the we know similar events

17:53

happened before in twenty eighteen was

17:55

it in it in in in but this is this has come earlier

17:57

this year absolutely

17:59

your day they have been a lot of reports

18:02

remembering those days in twenty

18:04

eighteen when the levels of the river rhine

18:06

were also very low expect some of those reports

18:08

mentioning that they were of

18:10

problems for over a hundred days

18:12

in the river rhine to the had an impact

18:14

also a japanese economy on

18:16

that one of the lessons learned precisely

18:19

from those moments was a plan

18:21

diversify also supply chains

18:23

and use alternative sources a government

18:25

as you can imagine can't do much immediately

18:27

to increase water levels but why can do

18:29

is sign change the way that some of those

18:32

products move across germany

18:34

so that's what us discussion is now

18:36

hearing in germany how to make sure that

18:38

products can still be distributed to where

18:41

they have to be distributed and a big impact

18:43

to all of that is as low as possible

18:45

to already and not a his pointed to the fact that

18:48

he said disruption here in germany he's very

18:50

high that that could really be a

18:52

problem for germany's economic

18:54

development this year that he could really affects

18:56

economic growth here in this country and

18:58

we've been talking about our he plays and forecasts

19:00

here in ireland earlier on in the program

19:03

stay in germany is there any rain forecast

19:05

their as as we expect to do next the

19:08

color one or even in places like complex

19:10

which is also close to the river rhine there are certain

19:13

days next week when little bit of rain

19:15

is expected such a germany's

19:18

our experts year authorities say

19:20

that the levels in the river rhine will still continue

19:22

to be know that they will probably wouldn't

19:24

even probably be lower in the next few days

19:26

before things start to improve

19:29

it is certainly the case that penny would like

19:31

a lot of rate not only for the rivers but

19:34

also for the drought in other

19:36

parts of germany that happens as well some

19:38

germany we move to france and to

19:40

william blue cross good evening william also

19:42

hundreds of firefighters from across

19:44

the rushing to france to help out of wildfires

19:48

to situation particularly bad they're particularly

19:50

around bordeaux

19:52

yes that's true our

19:54

we're seeing here in france very similar conditions

19:56

as to what thomas' explaining in germany

19:59

and of course all around europe

20:01

there's actually about eleven hundred french

20:03

fire fighters fighting and the drone region

20:05

near bordeaux are in just the last two days

20:07

and on top of that as you mentioned of the few hundreds

20:10

of firefighters and fire com equipment

20:12

such as airplanes and helicopters be brought in from

20:15

various european countries are to help

20:17

with this extreme fire that is

20:19

only the latest in and and only one

20:21

of several forest fires currently burning abyss

20:23

exact area was burning already

20:25

in july were more than one hundred forty square

20:28

kilometers of forest burned

20:30

and now into the last few days and other seventy

20:32

square kilometers has or and that's roughly

20:34

the size of the front city of nice

20:37

or that's now been completely wiped out in

20:39

this the , part

20:41

of of friends and

20:44

it's it's being seen as it is one of

20:46

the worst forest fires in

20:48

a french history since records are being kept of

20:50

the last few decades and friendship

20:52

as the saying that three times more

20:56

more your hector's have been burned

20:58

in this summer alone so far than in

21:00

any season they seen before at

21:03

this as he said this as and injured

21:05

july also this is the fourth heat wave

21:07

at this year and in france as

21:09

the country prepares for what the government is warning it's

21:11

is it's worst drought on record

21:14

happily worst drought just like was seen in other

21:16

parts of europe and just as we've been seeing every

21:18

summer for the last several summers this has been a top

21:20

story record breaking he'd record

21:22

breaking drought a record breaking wildfires

21:25

this is what

21:27

appears to be a new norm warmer climate

21:29

scientists are saying is is actually

21:31

even surprising memphis some of the things we're seeing

21:34

is specifically here in france i have

21:36

been predicted by so my client scientists and

21:38

not actually happen until the middle of the sensory

21:40

and already happening before twenty thirty closer

21:43

to twenty twenty actually we're

21:45

, record number two to three times

21:47

more of what's called tropical nights nights

21:49

above twenty degrees celsius or happenings

21:52

in various parts all around france

21:55

and the problem with that is that the

21:57

human body just can't cool authors no

21:59

way

21:59

we'll off i'd say it's a cool

22:02

down and especially people who were occurring

22:04

older who adviser and health conditions

22:06

that can be a very very dangerous situations

22:09

just on the health perspective let alone from the

22:11

wildlife i from other climates efforts

22:13

isis and we're looking as temperatures

22:16

we were talking about our own early around records here

22:18

we're in the the early thirties but up to forty

22:20

and does your on that region as well as

22:23

amidst the other figures are are start at

22:25

with william as he said that he

22:27

spoke about the warnings of climate scientists what's the

22:29

reaction of the public in france

22:32

i mean it's it's it's a lot

22:34

on one hand there is resignation

22:36

or me this is a new normal this is something we we

22:38

we all have to deal with whether it's in france or germany

22:41

or italy or where you are the on

22:43

the other hand it's really a shocking i'm in here

22:45

for example i specifically am in the french

22:47

alps within living memory

22:49

there are people here who just twenty or thirty

22:52

years ago remember seeing glaciers

22:54

from the village from the valley towns

22:56

villages that dot the valley here

22:58

and now if to see that some of those same

23:00

places you have to actually up into the mountains into

23:03

two or three thousand that

23:06

you used to be down

23:10

in valley below so within

23:13

people's life, find people can very

23:15

visibly very quickly, the changes

23:17

back before before

23:20

modern industrialized impact

23:23

on the climate would take centuries or

23:25

millennia, the

23:32

forecast in that germany earlier what about

23:35

france? do you have rain coming? some

23:37

parts of are expecting rain as

23:39

soon as tonight or over the weekend, but of the parts

23:41

that hardest hit up woody's

23:43

wildfires out the central

23:46

western part of the country's maybe not so

23:48

the end of the the weekend, if not till next week

23:50

so it's still several more days a very precarious situation

23:52

for all those firefighters on the ground, trying

23:54

to battle, what's been called a monster blaze,

23:56

william blue croft in front and

23:59

thomas varley

23:59

in germany their thank you very much for joining

24:02

me on drive time back shortly
