Here in Spain s*** is going bad fast, more than 600 deaths related from heat this past week

The heat wave is supposed to ramp up where i live tomorrow, thankfully im accostumed to warm temperatures

Thankfully it's gonna be around 20-25 again rest of the week here

40 degrees on its own

40 degrees with humidity

if u from south ontario 30 degrees isn’t too crazy

in the UK now and confirm millions of people are having a f***ing great time

it’s hot as balls though

keep ya grandparents hydrated

The amount we do ourselves is a drop in the pond compared to the waste that actual companies make.

Like theoretically, the way we consume today should not f*** us over. It's the production to make that consumption possible is f***ing us over. Plus, companies promote that s*** to make more money.

"Do your part" and "reduce your carbon footprint" are PR campaigns created by the corporations that are actually responsible for the situation, in an effort to shift that responsibility to everyday people.

Just like the entire recyling industry is responsible for absurd amounts of waste because its a bullshit PR campaign that promotes the practice of throwing away plastic products and buying new ones so the corporations that manufacture them can increase profits. For a while after plastics became mainstream, people would keep their bottles, bags, etc... and reuse them because they never broke down and could be washed. Thats a problem for the plastic industry.

This facts tho but it’s always been easier to attack the person next to you instead of Big Brother

Wales brehs be barbecuing out here.

Yah boi droogon got a fan on all night and looking like one of the three wisemen who dropped gifts off when Jesus dropped.

this is only the beginning unfortunately

much of it is about adaptability btw. how heat tolerant you are. your body physically changes when subjected to regular heat, one of the ways it does is by creating heat shock proteins that help to keep your body functioning under the added thermal stress.

like I grew up in a desert I love the heat 35-40c is pretty standard stuff for weeks in summer and I thrive in it. but im young and naturally drink a lot of water and am adapted to this environment. and im like white white

Im sure theres some genetic component though like you say, ancestors living in hot conditions are gonna breed people that are better adapted to heat, thats just natural selection n evolution n s***

but yeah I think age is a large factor in the fatalities as well so if you got elderly family or know ppl who do you gotta start spreading this knowledge and default to always checkin on em when this big heatwaves come thru

how many people have died so far?

looks like the wave is over and its back low 80s

curious to see the final count if its anywhere near 1k deaths

Hundreds TO thousands not 100k

100k?

Crine

i knew i shouldnt of smoked before logging on lmao

100k

damn the ol triple post laugh

False Alarm folks! climate change is not that bad! this man just remembered it was hot too when he was younger

so true

Yea dumb ass UK citizens I saw buying industrial ass AC because they can't handle couple days of sweat

If you vulnerable yeah but if u a healthy young adult then just get yourself a slap n get over it u p**** get in cold shower and lolly ices on deck n u sweet

F***

I’m on 40mg
