it’s nice and warm outdoors even though it’s fall, i don’t mind this at all :D
N1gg@ it’s 110 degrees in Texas and if it gets a single degree hotter I will kick your ass.
the hottest weather i’ve experienced is max 89 F
If you were Jewish you’d understand the dangers of global warming. They’ve been in oven like temperatures before.
Israel is like oven, hot desert in the middle of nowhere
Mosses went and got lost, then said, fuck it we’re here
It is nice WHEN IT’S NOT 40°C OUTSIDE
it’s like 25-30c here
Rn it’s also the same temp but last week it was impossible to get out of the hous since it was 36-38°C
The elite must really love it because its nice and warm in the summer house in the Hamptons and then nice and warm in the winter months at their ritzy beach front in Florida.
I want winter
Canada, the most southern parts of South America, and a good chunk of Eurasia are big winners in that regard.
Canada has had their worst wildfire season ever this year and it’s not even over. Over 30 million acres have burned. In the northern parts of the country, the permafrost is melting and making the ground unsuitable for building
It has had the most histrionic wildfire season ever this year, that’s for sure.
Forest fires are part of the natural lifecycle of a forest. They’re so normal that many plants require them to grow. The seeds sit there sealed up until a forest fire comes through. Lots of fires don’t really mean much to the Inhabitability of the place other than it’s warmer and drier, but far warmer far drier places than northern Canada are happily populated and have been for millennia.
Permafrost melts, leaves behind muskeg, which is a known quantity. Very common, not the end of the world. Even so, much of the country isnt permafrost, it’s just cold – so if it gets less cold it gets more inhabitable. Unlike 95% of Canadians, I’ve actually lived in those places.
Humans thrive in all kinds of places that should be inhospitable. The United States was almost entirely uninhabitable when the colonists arrived, and through engineering made it into a place people happily live from coast to coast.

wtf
American history is really something else, and because our ancestors were so effective in some key regards, we don’t even realize.
Huge swaths of the us are only inhabitable the way they are because of large engineering projects. The southeastern US was a swamp where you could catch malaria and die (a lot of Africa was the same), and a lot of the southwest was uninhabitable desert. The rocky mountains were conquered with blood building transportation networks that would have been unthinkable in previous eras. They managed to get water to dry areas and drain water from wet areas, and build transportation networks to remote areas that supply goods for regions that are productive today but wouldn’t be without trade.
If you head into some of the more historic regions and look around, you really have to go “why the hell would people leave the relative comfort of Europe during the enlightenment for a frozen hellscape in the bush?”
Large engineering projects only enabled large scale settlement and large scale agriculture. But Native Americans lived in almost every ecological zone in North America prior to European colonization, including the deep south and the southwestern deserts
