No need to go to the desert, the city of Paris invites you to spend some time under 50 degrees, to raise awareness of climate change, through Climate Sensé, an immersive experience, from November 19 to 21, 2024.
Unless you go on a trip to regions more exotic than ours, it is difficult to reach 50 degrees at our latitudes. And yet, this is what is hanging over our heads in a few years, due to the climate change. The city of Paris, which carried out a full-scale crisis exercise in October 2023, this time offers the possibility of test this temperature during a immersive experiencefor a few days, November 19 to 21, 2024to raise awareness among the general public.
According to climatologists from the expert group on climate change in Île-de-France, extreme heatwaves with peaks at this temperature could occur in the short term, if nothing changes. L'Paris City Hall thus accommodates a device, the Climate Sensewhich allows us to realize the impact of this heat on the body and mind, to warn of this danger on the daily life and health of Parisians.
Participants are immersed at more than 50 degrees and invited to carry out physical and cognitive activities in these much more difficult conditions. A sensory awareness of what could become a reality, accompanied by a journey of events to reflect on concrete solutions. If you wish to confront it, you will need to complete a medical questionnaire beforehand, and bring a change of clothing, just in case.
The city intends to anticipate, with its fourth Climate Plan and a new resilience strategy to concretely prepare the capital and its inhabitants to protect themselves against future shocks, its Local Bioclimatic Urban Planning Plan and its Parisian Environmental Health Plan.
