    here and now it’s the hottest summer of my life and they say it’s only going to get hotter, but nobody talks about the causes or solutions they just are happy they get a few extra days of sunshine, or complain about the damn power companies outages without talking about the ever increasing power demands caused by the same issue.

    I don’t want to be ‘that girl’ bringing everyone down so I keep the discussions online where others seem interested in discussing the issue

      I live in a country that has experienced the hottest recorded weather while neighboring countries are literally experiencing heat stroke deaths. I don’t live in those countries, but fortunately where I live there are organizations that are focusing on incremental steps to change. And I mean incremental because change doesn’t happen overnight. How is it in your area? Do you have any local organizations that can help mitigate or further prevent the effects the climate crisis, no matter how small?
