i find the way europeans call summer a “heatwave” very cute
yeah nah it’s not normal. we usually barely get two weeks over 20°c here in northern germany. now it’s been over 2 months where it hasn’t gone below 20°c even at night and we’ve been scratching at 30°c for 2 weeks. and it’s dry as fuck, it hasn’t rained in weeks. farmers are seeing the worst harvest in a century because of it, they’re expecting a loss of at least 50% compared to last year.
I find the way people are mocking Europeans for not being used to extreme heat (yes it is extreme for them considering their normal climate) and making light of actual deaths from heatstroke/exhaustion, pretty fucking disgusting actually, OP.
it’s not just a heatwave. In February, we had -20°C - five months later, same place, it’s close to 40°C. That’s 60°C difference - 140°Fahrenheit. That’s not cute.
just some selected effects of this europe’s heatwave:
denmark: more than 1,000 wildfires in july alone, which is a typical yearly total
france: white storks suffering from malnourishment, and, unable to fly, they get injured when falling from nests
germany: 10,000lbs of fish suffocated in hamburg because rivers are unable to release heat efficiently
greece: the attica wildfires were the deadliest in living memory, with 90+ confirmed to be dead
poland: outbreaks of toxic cyanobacteria, which only formed due to the warmer weather, forced beaches to close
portugal and spain: saw almost record-breaking temperatures of 46C+/115F+ which contributed to several deadly wildfires
sweden: the government issued 1.2 billion krona (approx. $191million) in aid for farmers, as the droughts made crops and livestock at serious risk
netherlands: asphalt roads melted all over the country, which caused long-term damage as car tyres peel it away from the road
united kingdom: manchester and several other areas burned for three weeks, with effects estimated to last for 15 years
our infrastructure isn’t designed for this. stop belittling countries you know nothing about
Europeans don’t call summer a “heatwave”. Summer is summer and is normal. We call a heatwave a fucking “heatwave”.
Also please consider most Europeans don’t have AC in their houses because it’s not normal for temperatures to go so high.
Most places in Denmark there was a ban on doing BBQ for a couple of weeks because it was simply too dry. The odds of a single spark accidentally starting a fire were too high.
No thanks.
y'all ever read a book so good you actually miss it
remember when lol meant “laughing out loud” instead of “this is to indicate that this brief text isn’t hostile”
No, thank you, President Pitbull.
somehow I got 95/20 on an assignment
I hope they never fix it and leave it this way forever
