How unprepared do you have to be to find yourself buying a fanin the middle of a heatwave?
Or is it like when people throw away their Christmas tree in the new year and they're getting rid of their fans when the heat subsided?
"Guess I don't need this anymore…"

They renamed global warming to climate change and told us they had enough money mitigate the effects. They said they would see how they could help Africa. Okay…

What’s considered extreme weather today, will be the new normal tomorrow.
40s climate change mentioned
Europe is energy poor – so they don’t have air conditioning everywhere. If they built hundreds of nuclear power plants over the last decades – they could have handled anything coming their way. Weather and Climate was never set in stone, read about mini ice ages just a couple hundred years ago or read about how much warmer it was in general during Roman times.
same France that's sending the boats .. naaa don't care how hot it is there and the 15k deaths quoted is a factual lie
I live in sc and we’re used to extreme heat but it’s still hot and without AC, you could not live here most of the year.
Don't people understand it's too late to do anything about all this now? I guess people will still be arguing about climate change while they're stumbling around in smoke and ashes looking for something to eat or drink.
