"mum what happened to Europe in 2023?"

[–] [email protected] 59 points 2 years ago

in North Africa they had 50 °C at the fucking sea. All the "you keep the southern African climate migrants in check for us" agreements the EU made, will not be worth much soon, when the people from Tunesia, Morocco and Algeria have to flee themselves from the heat.

I will take the rainy summer with 17°C we've had in Sweden this week over the heatwave anytime!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (6 children)

Absolutely! Not Sweden, but lets go to Svalbard!

I could totally live there forever!

Swiss here, can confirm hiking, but only in the mountains, it's too hot elsewhere.

But I'm in Scotland right now, and it's definitely pints with the lads here as usual. To he fair, their summer is also very average, mostly cool and it's looking like it could be raining any moment now 24/7.

It's so hot, I poured McDonald's coffee on my lap to cool off.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’m enjoying the heat and sun but i don’t want to be working through it. Let me sit outside all the time.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 years ago

The heat is fine if you are rich, got a private pool and an air conditioned office. This is also why the rich don't care about climate change. Climate change is part of the class struggle.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

European summers are mostly indistinguishable from Southeast Asian cold weather
