Why don't you research past heat waves? We're literally setting new heat records nearly every year. This year the heat record in Germany went from 39 degrees to 42. We're even setting night time heat records because of how bad it is. I don't understand the impulse to ignore what we're experiencing right now. What do you gain by sticking your head in the sand?
to me, these heatwaves feel like the start of the end of human existence
People one or two generations before you felt that about the cold war.
I think thats the wrong level of abstraction. The cold war ended, but clima change will not end.
Research past heat waves in Europe. Did your grand parents felt the same as you?
