I don’t understand why you said the first bit, nowhere had data centres to begin with.

Will the billionaires let them do this?

A single hot day isn’t a heatwave tho.

Also I was primary school aged at that time, so there is every possibility the adults around me were using hyperbole I wasn’t picking up on.

This is Britain, we should get 5 days of sunshine a year and rain or overcast for the rest.

I feel like you’ve been out of the country for the last decade. We regularly get multiple weeks over 30c in London every summer now and the seasons have been messed up for much longer than that.

The 25c being called a heatwave thing is something I remember from the early 90’s.

Yeah, it’s hellish in London, especially closer to the river and other low elevation areas. The humidity is like living in a sauna.

Summers regularly hit the mid 30’s now though. Sunday is forecast as 31c with almost a week over 30 ahead, and it’s still technically spring.

I swear I remember 25c being rare and called a heatwave when I was a kid, I miss that.

Lmao, we’re not surviving this.

I know personally that I’m unlikely to survive another year of my flat being over 40c inside with 90%+ humidity.

Even if I buy an air conditioner and can somehow afford to run it, the building I’m in has no insulation and had mice so many times there’s no way of properly sealing off flats from each other.
