A severe heatwave gripped much of Europe on Sunday, with temperatures nearing 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit), prompting nationwide warnings, transport disruption and signs of strain on wildlife and at tourist hotspots.
The heat surge on June 21, the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere and typically the start of the three hottest months of the year, raised concerns of an early and persistent onset of extreme conditions.

The secret is that the temperature underground is much cooler than surface temperatures. To take advantage of this, you dig a hole about 6 feet down, lie down flat, then pull the dirt back over yourself and fill the hole or have someone else do it for you.
This guys gets it!
There’s this sort of little known concept known as “climate change”, it was known as “global warming” a long time ago. The idea is that as we releaae greenhouse gases like CO2 into the atmosphere, more of the sun’s energy gets trapped inside the atmosphere making it warmer.
As it gets warmer, stuff like this is expected to become more common. We haven’t known about this for very long, and so our greenhouse gas emissions continue to speed up day by day, but if we can spread the word about this new and very important phonomenon, we might be able to avoid the worst of it in the long run.
Or maybe it will all just go away and get better one day if we just do nothing and wait and see. I don’t think we know enough about this “climate change” thing yet to really make any drastic changes. I mean what if we’re wrong?
I bet building a ton of data centres is the answer ✨
🤷♂️ can’t hurt…
Good thing climate change is a liberal hoax. Otherwise I’d be worried, right?
Hey if that was real scientists would have warned us about it years ago. But not your woke mind virus scientists. Real ones!
/s
There‘s even cultish alarmists that call it „climate catastrophe“ by now. Weirdos.
And then there‘s even people saying it‘s all because we do economics wrong, or something. Lol!
Something like AMOC stopping would do the trick. Or it might overshoot and then we have a really cold winter too.

What are all these tricks?

Being buried underground helps. Like unironically, as heat and cold waves continue to get worse, we may see people shifting towards underground homes. They’re already fairly common in parts of America (mostly in tornado alley where being buried helps protect against having the entire house being ripped off the foundation and thrown across town) and they are extremely energy efficient.
Your walls basically use geothermal to transfer heat directly into the earth. Like how being buried in sand at the beach will keep you nice and cool even when the beach is hot. Especially if you’re buried below the frost line, which makes winters easy too. So it’s not like it’s a new building technique that would need to be invented. It’s just that we’ll probably see more of it in places that didn’t traditionally have them.
That’s really smart. You could have just a garage above your house.
Didn’t you guys like enslave the entire equatorial world 200 years ago? I didn’t know they had heat pumps on the ships
