Jesus, the comments here are abysmal from what I can tell.
I'm no doomer, but we need to do something about this, even on the grassroots level.

Yeah, I'm the Northern areas of the globe and weather has become so unpredictable. Flooding like we have never seen before, stronger storms, droughts. Heat and also more extreme cold when it gets cold. I heard thunder in Febryary this year at night, this is not something that has ever happened before on this latitude, it doesn't thunder in winter and yet it did this year.
The people better off have already bough their way out of the heat part by buying heat pumps. I have noticed how the middle class climate discourse has died down a lot after they got this solution. Meanwhile those of us in social or average rental housing are feeling it, in this country nothing is built for cooling. In the last few years I have become sort of scared of summer because getting older, post-covid and this weather don't mix. I am increasingly worried I can't deal with my work or sleep in the weather we can't escape from anymore. And still newspapers are running the happy beach picture heatwave stories.
