John McYank from Texas (red) telling Central Europeans (blue) that there is no climate change, that 40°C in the beginning of summer is normal and that we should just get an AC.
@saki_lizzie Tomorow is supposed to be the worse it gets and then it should be back to normal around Sunday.
Also rn its more around 27° and not 37° (that was the temperature shown by my car after being parked all day under the sun) Nothern France is berable all be it past 25 is hell already
C'est quand même triste que tout les youtubeur que j'adorais regarder ya presque 10ans se sont, pour la quasi totalité, volatilisé hors sol et passe leur temps à dire comment là où ils sont c'est trop bien et nous crache à la gueule.
I think Americans misunderstand why AC is less common in Europe.
For a lot of Europeans, comfort is not always about controlling everything artificially. It is also about opening the windows, letting air circulate, using shutters, living with the seasons, and keeping life simple.
It is not necessarily backward. It is just a different relationship with comfort, energy, and everyday life.
Here’s a reality check: no one cares about climate change anymore. It is politically dead, and it will stay that way until material conditions improve. Only way to do that is economic growth.
Europe alone won’t fix climate change. We could be net zero or carbon negative and it would fix literally nothing as long as the rest of the world doesn’t care. And the rest of the world doesn’t care. Nor will they care.
For Europe the question becomes simple. Will we continue killing ourselves for net zero even when it fixes nothing and makes our lives worse? Doesn’t seem very smart.
Climate change is here to stay. The window and willingness to fix it has closed. We either innovate a way out its consequences or we die. That’s it.
