I hear you. As I said, there are fairly simple limits to what A/C can do.
But with the difficult choice of "promote the essential-to-humanity unlimited growth of AI data centers" and "do the absolute bare minimum to try and slow down climate change", it's obvious that a well bought politician needs to accept option 1...
@dirkhh @etchedpixels Pfft, whatever A/C’s restaurants in the US south use could handle it. When you roll up to the parking lot and the windows are all fogged and dripping with condensation, you know you need to go back home to get your parka.

@dirkhh we sotheners can now call you laidbacks and criticize your supposed midday nap habits? https://amp.dw.com/en/climate-change-heat-wave-costs-the-german-economy-billions/a-77694558
Maybe if conservative politicians see the correlation between climate change and economic stagnation they will finally take it seriously.

@dirkhh Oh, there's another color there, it's just in infrared

@dirkhh this can't be temp colour coded though. Ireland has been nowhere near as hot as France, and its not winter in Portugal as far as I've heard. What is this?
-
@dirkhh and look at the north, this will be horrible in Greenland even!
@energisch_ @dirkhh Greenland isn't anywhere near this map.
-
@dirkhh, what's the temperature scale for that? (It looks a bit off to me as I'm just about within the grey area but the forecast for tomorrow says 26℃.)
@lp0_on_fire @dirkhh right? Somethings fucky here. Don't get me wrong, I'm hot and it's a climate disaster, but I don't know what this map is telling us.

@Iwillyeah
I think the color depicts the deviation from "average late June temperature". So warmer than usual most places, and colder than usual for example in Portugal... -

@dirkhh it's doubleplusgood.

I believe it's the difference compared to the average temperature.

@dirkhh
I think the color is exactly right and intended to be so.
It is the color of burning wood or paper.

@dirkhh I'm guessing that's infrared then!
(Since hot and cold colours are opposite order of high and low energy light.)

@dirkhh It's OK because all the reply-people in the social media comments of news outlets say it's just an ordinary summer (fun fact, it's not summer yet) and stop complaining because it's an ordinary workday for them tomorrow.

…
And other reasons why democracy sometimes frightens me (even if it's still better than the alternatives).

@dirkhh we need a version of this pic but the center is burned through.
