It's just that anything cooler feels too cold. If it's 100 outside coming into 72 is too much.
You really from Bakersfield? That swamp cooler get your room to a chilly 80 degrees no worrying about cracking 72. I lived in central for a short amount of time and smelled those fawkin cows as I passed through modesto to tahoe. Guess the not noticing it wears off.

in Europe they're already aspousing climate lockdowns, & have already started creating '15 minute cities'; where you're not allowed to travel outside designated zones - with checkpoints, etc. It's getting real ova here!
Nigger what. I haven't heard anything about this. It wouldn't surprise me if TPTB are planning shit like this but it isn't in effect anywhere as far as I know. The whole of Southern Europe just went through a massive heatwave and the worst I've seen the authorities do was shift working hours and close down some open air tourist attractions during the heat of the day so dopey tourists don't drop dead from heatstroke.

how do you know this tho'? Were the countries coloured red on the international weather?
I know a bunch of those aforementioned dopey tourists who just got back. They all agreed it was pretty bad.

Print media fags obviously were all over it too and going nuts calling it extreme climate change in action like they do with every fucking gust of wind these days but wog governments seemed to have kept a delicate touch. Mostly just warnings and recommendations and a few subtle policies changes here and there to make sure people are out of the sun when the temps are highest.

Despite what some limpwristed journalist might screech on Xitter, heatwaves are common in Southern Europe and the people there know what to do when one hits. And that isn't instituting "15 minutes cities" or retarded shit of that nature that would absolutely kill tourism.

I have mixed opinions; I know it's been hot some places but I've also seen some deceit... I'm calling it now.
I'm generally skeptical when it comes to how media portrays climate stuff but I think this is a silly thing to go all fighter_sm over. These aren't Antarctic ice sheet readings or esoteric shit like that, it's the actual fucking temperature across half a continent. If they were lying about it then any dope with a working thermometer could've disproven their numbers and hundreds of millions had the opportunity to do so.

I don't think anyones lying about the temperature, they're lying about it being abnormal. Ocean levels aren't rising, glaciers are growing, and there's plenty of recorded temps from 100 years ago beating the current ones.

40 degrees in the UK is absolutely abnormal. Some places have been in drought conditions for over a year with water restrictions in place and we are a pretty green island that traditionally has enough rain
