France Is Hotter Than the Sahara. This Is Everyone’s Warning.

hotter than the sahara normally, or hotter than the sahara right now?

the media focus is on europe, but other regions of the world are experiencing heat waves too and north africa seems to be particularly affected as well, which i see almost no one talk about…

Pretty sure the warnings were back in at least the 70s

A city hotter than parts of the Sahara becomes a headline for a day, then disappears under sport, politics and celebrity gossip.

It really feels like this so much! There were quite some sad climate news this year already, but except the heatwave in Europe, they all got buried by Hormuz strait news, like:

• collapse of AMOC now likely
• collapse of Thwaites now likely
• acceleration rate of warming almost doubled in the past decade to about 0.3 °C/decade

..the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is losing strength.

This is probably affecting this European summer more than anticipated.

Our winter this year in Southern California was the hottest in recorded history.

not really much normal people can do. voted green on the basis of them pushing work from home (30% carbon reduction) but once in office they dropped that idea, implemented "turbo migration" and forced homeowners (mainly famillies who took loans) to take out more loans to install solar while reducing paid parental leave. basically worst backstab me and my family have ever seen.

even if france as a whole turned 0 emissions, that wouldnt change anything if everyone else is doing business as usual.
