Thanks to our partner Allianz France for accompanying us on this episode, and for allowing us to discuss floods in history! As they say, prevention is better than cure, and they even supported a research center to find solutions to combat floods! More info here: https://bit.ly/Allianz_Inondations_NB #AllianzFrance #AllianzPrevention Right now in the news, we often hear about “historic floods”, “historic temperature records”... Yes, we've already seen it in other episodes, climate and History... they are very closely linked! A host of chroniclers have noted rare climatic phenomena and natural disasters since Antiquity, especially when they were exceptional. Floods, for example, surprised many people, because of all the possible reasons they happen: melting snow, heavy rains, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes... or even human causes, like when a dam breaks! So, each era had its risks, but also its way of interpreting them: accident of nature? Divine punishment? Human imprudence? This is what we are discovering today! ➤ To find out if your home is in a flood zone, click here: https://www.georisques.gouv.fr/ ????
