"Portland, Oregon, had its hottest day ever recorded – reaching 108F (42.2C) on Saturday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service. The previous record for Oregon’s largest city was 107F (41.7C), a mark hit in 1965 and 1981.
Seattle reached 101F (38.3C) by mid-afternoon Saturday, making it the hottest June day on record and only the fourth time in recorded history the usually temperate city had topped 100 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.
The hot weather had berry farmers scrambling to pick crops before they rot on the vine and fisheries managers working to keep endangered sockeye salmon safe from too-warm river water.
The extended “heat dome” over the Pacific north-west was a taste of the future as climate change reshapes weather patterns worldwide, said Kristie Ebi, a professor at the University of Washington who studies global warming and its effects on public health."

Decades of humanity has caused this irreversible global warming. If only we could all get together and try our best to slow this down but sadly many gullible people are still convinced this is normal and not our fault.

Rich people will be fine
Regular people won’t be
Beach/coastal properties will just move to new places
After all these places are engulfed in water rich people will probably buy up land at the new coastlines

Yep, some people aren't fit to rule. Give people with no morality the opportunity to build a civilization, eventually it tears down the same way it was built.
Side note, why do people believe in evolution and then call black people monkeys?
Are they subconsciously admitting that they originate from us?
keep them protesting racist liberals/antifas home. they've caused so much damage to a once beautiful city.
